An ex-employee said: “I’ve seen new joiners break down in tears during their first week, made to feel like they were the dumbest in the room, questioning how they even passed the CA exams. It’s tough in the Big 4.”

Which is the best Big 4?

As someone who has worked in 3/4 Big4s I can confidently say that all the Big4s are the same. The reason for that is very simple, everyone in these big4s are from other big4s so the culture remains the same.

What all ppl think about Big 4 ??

Solution Architect

Working for a Big 4 company has been terrible. They don't care about work-life balance; they treat us like dirt. 

They think it's okay to work even when we're sick. I start early and finish late every day, and they say it's normal. If I log off before 7, they act like it's a crime, saying, "Even bosses work late, so why can't you?" They even expect us to work on weekends, like it's no big deal. There's no real teamwork; everything feels controlled. I end up with all the work. The bosses are just as bad; you can't talk to them about your problems. Even if you're struggling mentally, they want you to work 12 hours a day. And getting a day off? 

It's like winning the lottery. This job is ruining my mental health. I can't sleep at night worrying about going back to work the next day. They don't care about us; they just want us to work non-stop and forget about our personal lives.

Big 4 pathetic work culture ([RANT])

Context - Since Deloitte does not get a lot of projects, they bend over their knees in front of clients and do each and everything like literally peon, clerk jobs too if client asks them to.

I was deployed at a client location 5 days a week and was not giving any specific work to do but was told "Jo client bole wo karna hai". Client was a 24 yr old kid earning 80% lesser than me. He used to hurl abuses in the office, on weekends and even behaved physically inappropriately at times. When I informed the manager, he was like " tumse client handle nahi hora".

Even after raising it to HR, no action was taken and manager also got promotion inspite of being the one aware about everything and not stepping up. I was given way below appraisal than industry and company average and have been pushed aside by the company.

Request help from the community to help me with any openings or jobs in product management role in your company for me to move out of this toxic environment

Engineering Manager

Hey everyone,
I'm new to this app. Figuring out how it works.
Anyway,
I have recently resigned from one of the big4 firms (or let's say I was forced to resign for some reasons).

I feel traumatized after my experience and also someone who is unable to talk about her emotions easily, I do not feel good and I'm unable to talk about it. I feel helpless and scared to go back to the corporate world.
Does anyone feel the same here?
How did you manage to heal from a work related trauma?

Big4 - Work related issue.
