Is Big 4 audit as boring as people say?! 😴 THE FISHERMAN ANALOGY

[@awediomusic2137]

To add to your analogy, there's another idea about your patience being rewarded. It's the end of the day, you've been sat there for hours and haven't caught a thing. And yet all of a sudden, you feel a tug on the end of your rod. You reel the line in and end up taking home a huge prize salmon. Within big 4 audit, you can almost guarantee that whilst the day-to-day work will be a grind, by the end of the experience you will have an absolute wealth of further development opportunities ahead whether it be gunning for partner, moving into industry, side-stepping into consulting or corporate finance and a plethora of other areas. Not to mention the networks and knowledge you will have built will continue to serve you throughout the rest of your life. Audit is in a lot of ways a means to an end, and in most professions you always need to start out in the grind before you can move upwards after paying your dues. You know for a fact that those long hours will be rewarded in the end. Keep up the good work! - An Audit Apprentice at KPMG

Been working for 2 years at a Big four, after having some writing experiance at a newspaper during uni. Auditing IS boring.

Love the analogy!!

Did a first internship in audit at a big4, I loved the people, but found the job incredibly dull for a graduate job. After a second internship in a PE fund, I landed a job in a valuation/TS/modeling group when I graduated. Finance is flat out a more intellectually stimulating/challenging field than accounting.

There is nothing fun in audit, accounting and finance NOT A THING, perhaps showing red numbers as a prank and see the bosses reaction.

It seems like a fairly miserable 3-3.5 years and then once qualified things start to look up

Yes the people I met were the only thing interesting thing about big 4 audit. Other stuff was so bad I made a song about it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oIaclJuph7KMrcU
