pwc audit can exit to BOD and head of audit committee. Not just for one co, but many.

Not everyone wants to work like a dog in IB. Some prefer to shake leg and draw director fees.

I think this is quite true. Regret doing Investment Banking when I could've gone the audit route

Well said.

Why bother with partnership probability.

For SG context, I don't think people go to deal advisory or advisory in general with the idea of making partner. It is about doing something that may offer exit ops to consulting, in house corp strategy and others.

For audit, I personally dunno anyone who went in with the idea of making partners. In fact, I don't know anyone who went in aiming to stay at least until SM. It is more of natural progression if they stay until SM
