Orange firm for audit relatively has better welfare and culture compared to the other three. So it might not be that bad.

In terms of the value of the cert, maybe the opportunities slightly more advantageous compared to those without for accounting roles.
Thanks for the responses! I do hear people saying "better job opportunities" with CA but is it really true? Most of the seniors and managers I know don't have CA and many have left in the past few months, they don't seem to have difficulties finding jobs. If I'm intending to join internal audit, is CA a hard requirement? Just weighing the pros and cons if staying 3 years here is worth it, finished 1 peak and I'm dying alr
