Exactly... these poor big 4 souls trying to justify that they have made the right choice by showering themselves with fiction haha

Please don’t.

Banks BO/MO graduate programmes start at 4.5k on average and after 6-7 years these graduates would move on to VP (or at least at senior AVP level) earning 10k p.a. Better work life balance and bonuses as well (dependent on team — compliance averages 3 months)

lol funny how you choose to believe “HR” at a career fair who aren’t even auditors; instead of believing people who are working as auditors themselves. Yes, 5 years is the usual progression required to make it to manager level in big 4

Unless you’re midjoiner from some mid tier firm or from Malaysia. or you’re just plain horrible in your work. then it will delay the process

5 years to climb from Assoc 1 -> Assoc 2 -> Snr Assoc 1 -> Snr Assoc 2 -> AM 1 -> AM 2 -> M 1?

Not from audit by hearsay that you gotta work 1 year in each rank before you promote (if you don't screw up). Seems like will reach M only in the 7th year?

1 year 1 promo if you consistently perform well (eg have a smile on your face, angkat bola + do 60-80hrs a week) if no covid.

Keep in mind all this while you’re severely underpaid (even if you reach M)

If you b4 = cui

Am I missing something? Regardless whether it’s 5, 6 or 7 years to make manager - what’s the big deal earning 6k+ at the start of your 6th/7th/8th year?

Still dam little in my book
