...one thing Big 4 doesn't mean you are getting all the benefits and satisfaction..this is absolutely wrong from my personal experience what I encountered is that job security is there and compensation also but there is no work life balance if you have family and want to spend time with them also then never join PWC in my Frank opinion.
