This is ultimate beta behaviour.

Alpha = not happy, quit n find a job which appreciates n pays u fairly according to your talent n skillset

Beta = not happy, stay to quietly suffer n get overworked n underpaid and go on anon internet forum to discuss how to sabo the firm

Can see why Big4 continues to exploit ppl left right centre. too many spineless betas inside.

To be fair , all M lvl and above need throw saikang to the junior staffs. They need their time to source for client hit KPI overseas the entire engagements. But there are always the good and cui M/SMs , cui ones usually not because their technicals are cui, but their ppl/project management skills are bad. Usually these SM grow up in big 4 fish tank without experiencing the commercial worlds

I have this one super nice SM. She chio, she patient, but she’s strict. Working for her really benefits me a lot cos she shields me from mean client ,bother to explain to the staffs , or at least no time talk then ask the staff to look for info to learn. SM like dis I wouldn’t mind OT and do admins for her, cos she gives me good learning , I give her by helping her work load

The cui SM always jjww, staff A not good Staff B not good. Always black face and leave staffs in the mud. Treat u like garba*ge but expect u to deliver to her and do her things first. Cui one like to say she’s paid to do her job not to take care of juniors . ???? Since when? Even commercial, management lvl Liao u are supposed to groom the next gen of talents of the firm.
You wonder why big 4 can’t keep talents. This kind of behaviour never got called out if this SM is good technically, so the cui ones always get their way by treating ppl badly. Honestly in big 4 being nice doesn’t matter, u only working for the partners. So as juniors staffs, if u see this kind of SM being the majority, just run and change to another department/firm, is toxic and u won’t learn as much if u plan to exit after hitting M

If u follow this thread closely, u would know which out of the 4 has the most cui SM

Just my two cents

ya cui SMs always gave me anxiety lol best way to strike back is probably to take mc/ quit before fs signing date

Can someone rank the best to worst big 4

All big4 have noob seniors-partners.

Not yellow. I was serving my last 2-3 weeks as senior for a big engagement (listed co owning stake in multiple listed companies), and all of the seniors happened to tender at the same time. My SM was still perfectly nonchalant, such as uncontactable by seniors/associates and not looking for replacement seniors.

Pity those who came to take over me after I left.
