Q: Big4 - Yearly salary increment

This change was only in 2021 iirc.

When i first started it was 3, 3.2, 4.2 ,4.8, 5.3 then 6.

The increase was a result of Covid barring any hires of foreign talent resulting in big4 raising pay to get staff from mid tier to fill the gaps of those who left for greener pastures.

The outcome of that is that while we enjoy a permanent pay increase, the replacements till today cant fill the gap of those who have left.

Yours should be around 2015?

During my time it was 2.8, 3.1, 4, 4.6, 5.1 then 6 for manager.

advisory services are paying more than audit

How long will it take to reach 6?

Around 6 to 8 years?

Having to take exams while grinding for 3 years makes it less attractive.

Is it mandatory? Can't you just not take it?

Leading a team is different from doing the groundwork. Some people are more suited to be technical lead instead

why dont they just let all the local accounts clerk join audit? all dying to join audit but cant get in, while we always "dont have enough ppl". unlike jhk who jump once they get PR, they are all so loyal and think audit is the best job ever like IBD, confirm can resolve turnover problem
