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.
Well said, bro/sis. Add me in linkedin.l if you dont mind.
