Q: Big4 - Yearly salary increment

Ask your colleague dont be too hard on himself

For audit , the effort and brain freeze will never match the rewards

Just be at peace with yourself and think that being paid $1 to audit google is reasonable

They see total compensation.

I think depends on company

Last time my CFO was like RSAF global radar surveillance plane for expenses

If $1 $2 out of normal, planes scrambled

True. This kind of brain less job no need high flyers to do.

SO i've always wondered why FCHs from local u waste their lives in Big 4 audit. Is it kenna conned or what. Really disappoint their parents sia.

Like PhD nuclear physicist go and be pri sch science teacher. Really waste talent.

The problem is lack of opportunity for locals. Skill transfer nonsense by gov to take in more foreign is just out of logic here.

It's 2024. Anyone with a brain still taking accounting is clearly dumb when every online forums these days tell you to take things like CS, law.
