Really glad KZbin surfaced this video on my feed! Resonated with a lot of your points Katrina (my first job was at a Big 4) and although I don't know you at all beyond this video I can confidently say you won't regret choosing content creation over corporate :) Best of luck!!!!

Look prettier without makeup

watched the whole video waiting for the review, only for it to end with no review...

So cute! Enjoy your stories and hope you and hubby are doing well - fellow accountant

what is a big 4 firm?

Love this upload of yours👍🏻..aspiring US CPA from this side

Leaving b4 to become a content creator 🤗

So you’re basically a temporary worker.

Have any of your employers asked how long it took to get your bachelors degree? Have they ever asked for your gpa?

Hi did any of your employers ask for your college gpa?

When I was working at KPMG, they had a Tik tok ban 😭 that was another reason I left

How are you doing right now in your finance role at the start up tech company??

Waouw, I was just looking at accounting vids, didn't expect this beautifull wedding video tearing me up!!

Hello! Do your laptop has numeric pad?

I've actually become super, super interested in becoming a Certified Public Accountant. I obtained my Master of Business Administration degree in 2022 and want to add to it. This is super inspiring! I love how you incorporate the Lord into your everyday routine. May Jesus bless you, Katrina!

You are so pretty, kind, and smart. I hope one day I can find my other half

Thanks for the video. Have any of your employers ever asked you how long it took to complete your degree?

I don't have a school report and l only have grade 12 results only Can I get admission into the college as an undergraduate student.

Obviously CPA exam has been a pain in my ass that won't bother me any longer I have gotten my license already thanks to you Mr Dylan God bless you more cuz you made it possible for me

i worked in 2 diff big 4 companies and from then i AVOID thinking about accounting and auditing as my career, everybody was unhinged and the ptsd it gave me was not it, but ngl it added some value to my CV lol

Accounting/finance is a bad field in general. Just do engineering instead. This field has way too many qualifiers you need to make a living. College degree, CPA, big 4 experience, networking, etc. it's literally a bunch of dumb jocks thinking they're intelligent when it's basic math and econ. Get a bachelor's degree in engineering and never look back.

I don't understand english much but I know when someone is beautiful

Hey Katrina - CourseCareers sent you an email about a paid partnership. Did you get a chance to read it yet?

I agree, being a KZbinr is way more fun than accounting at a big 4.

Thanks for using my song SPEND A LIFE in your video! And congrats on your wedding!

Omg she’s back!!!!!! 🥳omg reacting to the wedding video 🥲🥲🥲 was presh

Before B4: OMG this is my dreamjob, gonna be positive bla bla bla After B4: I need a pillow and a basebal bat. Not even Dick Chenney worked this much xD I'm suffering a burn out, always working, all day all night, all day all night

That is wild

She is so beautiful ❤

This is so good! I'm glad I already do most of these things haha! I will add your tip which is writing down questions to ask my professors during class tho! Great tips & videos Katrina! :) I'm currently in college here in Toronto & I just recently switched my major from marketing to accounting because of how much I enjoyed my Introductory Financial Accounting class lol. I was originally in Marketing & my other option was to be in HR because I thought those two would be the best based on my personality & whatnot but then I realized, I love talking to people but I also low key hate dealing with low quality people HAHA so I decided to switch to accounting lmfao. There were more reasons too ofc but yeah, just wanted to say your videos here are really helpful for me since I'm going down the same path you took a few years back so thank you so much for all the great content! :) Looking forward to seeing what the future has in store :)

pretty interesting daily basis, i am excited take gym membership for better morning activity

Can anyone offer me some perspective or advice? I am not sure if my experience is the same as others. I work at one of the Big 4, have an MBA in International Finance with 5 years of accounting experience. My whole Big 4 experience has been an absolute nightmare. Let me explain. I was working as a level 2 accountant at a major corporation. Then a Big 4 company reached out to me and actively recruited me for a Financial Analyst position. I ended up accepting the offer because the Big 4 company recruiter actively pursued me for the financial analysis position, and I figured the Big 4 was a reputable company where I can learn new applicable financial analytic skills for my career growth. However, from day 1 of starting at the Big 4 company I realized that the opportunity was 100% misrepresented. Essentially, the engagement I was put on was processing invoices repetitively. This engagement was a very low skill engagement with call center vibes, and 100% not what was being presented to me or what I was agreed to. After six months of processing invoices, I reached out to an experienced manager and explained my experience and what had transpired. She agreed with me that my concern was valid, and this should not have happened to me. Therefore, they looked for a financial analysis engagement where I would be able to learn and apply financial analytics which is what I was recruited for initially. The new project that they presented was "Real Property Valuation" and was presented as an engagement that would require traveling to different location where I could apply financial valuation skills such NPV and IRR, so I agreed to this new engagement. However, when I start this new engagement, I soon realized that this engagement had the very same nature of the Invoice Processing engagement with no traveling or financial analysis being applied or learned for the activities. Personally, I have never felt so mislead and violated as an employee in my life, and I am not inspired to do the work. Every job I have ever had, the job description has been pretty spot-on except for this Big 4 company. Now I am in a very tough situation where I have sacrificed my prior career for a situation full of deception hoping and I feel they hope I don't notice or say anything. I was really hoping to get more out of my experience at the Big 4, but I simply don't think they have what they were recruiting me for. Is this a normal Big 4 experience? Has anyone else had the same experience? What should I do? Serve 1 year there hoping that I can transfer to a different part of the company or start making my exit strategy? Any suggestion or advice would be appreciated.

also, how is the job market in the united states? is there enough jobs for accounting majors?

is it possible to do accounting online? if I do it online, how would I learn the material

as an accounting major, do you need the CPA? are you able to work for any accounting firm without it or is it a must? also what type of examples of work and assignments do you do

I was searching for down to earth wedding dress try-on videos (vs the superficial glam try-ons). I found it 😊 very fun to watch

Did you end up taking any videos down after HR/legal approached you before leaving? That would be such a hard decision.

Nothing says "honest review" like getting paid for it

may I know how long have you been working at big4 though?

Yay! Congratulations on saying yes to your very special dress! Enjoy every moment! Cheers to your wedding journey! Have an amazing wedding!

I quit Deloitte USI as well a month ago worked there for almost 2 years. The work culture was becoming more & more toxic and felt like busy throughout the year affevting my health and personal life. Working at a big 4 is not for everyone 😅 Now pursuing my CPA as well

I am very fortunate to join a mid size independant firm in Toronto and I still love it there. If youre still interested in the accounting firm, dont give up cuz big 4 is not the end of it!

I moved from tech to big 4 consulting and to be honest it was a massive step backwards

I've been watching your videos for about a year now. Watching your videos at the end of the workday puts me always in a cozy mood:)

her workday starts at 9:00 - thank you! I'm recently getting into the field myself, really useful to know what tasks actually goes into 'auditing'
