Corporate Finance vs Law

[hashbrowntime]

Hi

I am currently in a dilemma as to which offer I should take up:

1. Big 4 Corporate Finance

2. Being a lawyer in a small law practice

Thanks in Advance!

of cos law la, can join parties and sue ppl. vote for u in 2016.

Law of course!

No one disrespects lawyers, same can't be same for finance professionals.

Does anyone know how the progression (salary/rank) for Corporate Finance in Big 4 is like? And what are the exit opportunities available? Is it possible to enter banks in the investment banking department?

lawyers twist words. bankers are just greedy. choose corp finance.

with big4 experience in corporate finance, you could be easily switch to be a corporate lawyer or a in-house in finance industry. while working in a small law firm, you might be hardly to have opportunities getting involved in high end commercial cases.
