Big 4 audit exit options
 

Hi, been browsing this forum but most big 4 threads are about salary or increment. Therefore wanted to start a thread for exit options

Can you please state your grade when quitting, new position and salary at new position? Would be interesting to see if got other industries

I’m interested in this too! Can anyone help a junior out? Thank you in advance.

We should stay in big 4 till we die.

Are the accounting skills and exposure to multiple clients in big 4 sufficient to jump to treasury or finance? Or is it completely different?

Reason is don't want be accountant, rather do something like treasury.

Just do a cfa / masters and hop

Pls lah. You accountants CMI when it comes to Corporate Treasury work. Can't even figure out whether buy/sell is LHS or RHS for a ccy pair. Dun even understand hedge cost. Want to join Treasury? Ahahahahaha!

Auditors are a dime a dozen. The universities churn out so many audit grads yearly it doesn't matter if you're big4 or mid tier, your skillsets are nothing special. Best is to stay in audit and grind it out. Dont get your hopes up for a big pay bump if you jump.
