What an odd way to characterize choosing careers.

Why is safety even an issue? Grads are not being asked to gamble their career or money away.

If a grad is bright and ambitious, they will easily go into other corporate or banking or finance tracks that allow them to easily hit 100k far faster and with lower working hrs, than Big4.

It's not an issue of safety vs risk. It's a difference between the lazy + unambitious grad vs the hungry + ambitious grad. Audit attracts the former type of grads, that want to walk into a job without much competition or effort (because barriers to entry are so low). The latter type of grads will avoid Big4 altogether because they know they can earn so much more elsewhere, and are not afraid of competing to prove themselves.

I lost count of the hours… usually it’s 6-7 days a week during heavy peak.

Less intense peak 5 days

What the fk are you smoking? how is 4.3k pay good for the amount of BS you have to endure and the 60 hours a week every week for months / years even worth?

Big 4 jobs are no different than grabfood workers working 10 hours a day hitting 4.5k lol

To the younger generation... Join the Big 4. Why hesitate?

Despite the good pay of $4.3K, you still don't want to work in an audit firm? Yes, the hours are long, and the work-life balance isn't ideal, but it’s a valuable experience.

Please don't force us to offshore audits overseas until there are no more internship opportunities.

Think about the future younger generation—Generation Alpha—who wants to join the audit industry in the future.

Do that by carrying down the craft.

Even those from poly avoided all these 💩 by changing courses at university. Quite a number of people who studied and done well in accounting in poly switched to economics, finance, or IT in 2020, the year the cut-off for accounting plummeted.
