How is working for Big4 different than working for a Startup?

I started off my career working for a Startup because the pay was slightly higher (Startup offered me 6.5 LPA whereas EY was offering 5.5 LPA for the same role)

I always wondered if I would have gotten better exposure and learning experience if I worked for one of the Big4…Does it in anyway provide additional intangible perks?

Why do you work in the Big 4? [Deloitte, EY, PwC, KPMG]

Why do so many people work in the Big 4 given that you have to work so many hours and your work life balance doesn’t exist.

Is having a Big 4 on your CV really worth all of that hassle and not having a life in your 20s?
