The Big4 have done a good job trying to sell to ignorant fresh grads that slaving for them with garbage pay & crap hours right after school is "compulsory" in order to "make it big" over the long term. Reality is that slaving for Big4 doesn't really propel your career trajectory in any meaningful way compared to if you had just joined a junior degree job right at the start in most bigger companies or public sector.
Sometime is not that you can choose and so many choice to choose from.

u talk like to land a job in good company is so easy. there like 1000+ grad each year snatching just less than 10 position in a good company.. what the probability?

you always need a back up plan for that if you are not capable to go to big MNC..
or some people doesnt have such good result so they have to work even harder and tougher route to have big pay in future.
