Q: Big4 - Yearly salary increment

Some engagements are not so straightforward. If you don’t start from the bottom, you won’t know all the technical terms or how the audit is done. But of course, the A1 work may seem a bit easy for local university graduates.

In terms of mental endurance, not everyone has the ability to last until becoming a manager. Many will drop out in less than a year or so because of mental stress and burnout. Imagine having to work close to 90% of the year. the fact that someone can even make it to manager means that their endurance is above average. I think fresh grads can try for a year or so to see if they can even last through a few cycles of peak.

It's not easy. I'm a senior and I see the work my manager do also I don't want to stay already. It's technically challenging on top of all the project management. If you ask me all the changes in standards, reporting requirements, details about FRS, I won't even know it by heart well enough to pinpoint issues from just looking.

Shitposting about our bosses is fun but let's acknowledge that not everyone can be an audit manager.

I’m not sure, cause only the seniors report to me and I let them handle the associates.

So I’m still mainly working with 1995 to 1997.

But I did hear the seniors having a hard time with the associates lol.

I would say ranting about your managers feels good until you become manager and realise how you’re on the other side of the fence.

But yet you’re stuck between the big bosses and the small fries…

lol just don’t become the very thing you swore to change…

July is coming. How many batches of seniors have promoted to be the very same type of managers they were unhappy with?

who ask you last time only do vouching work and fieldwork stuff?

if u start your position in reading technical work and FRS, you would be more familiar than your audit manager

Problem with Big4 is damm lame to ask local uni graduates to do vouching work stuff..These are too easy

Well... exactly. No local uni grad will come do audit if they aware of their options.

Unless you offer them M1 then they might consider.
