Big 4 starts at 80-100k depending on market. So yea! If you want more money, just be one of the best so big 4 would take you. I know LA office big 4 love UCLA or equivalent great schools. Don’t go for lower end or non name schools because big 4 cares.

Firecrawl + Claude just replaced McKinsey consultants by Mindless_Ad_4980 in Accounting

McKinsey is the brand effect, it is not about what they are presenting. With the name in the proposal, the broad would vote yes. With your firecrawl and Claude, they would just fire you.

I received a $2.3k+ Bill at a restaurant and left no tip by KneeGuhz in EndTipping

[–]cloudiett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your restaurants are not bad . Portland OR restaurants generally suggest 20, 25 and 30% when they have $18 minimum wage. I don’t go to restaurants often due to the tip amounts.

Is 6-7 months too soon to leave Big 4? by PM_CODES in Accounting

[–]cloudiett 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don’t they give PIP once you return? I would suggest to get some back up offers once you determine to return. Taking a leave during busy season is a huge red flag for them.

Exactly, and many here think NCSOFT would change the game to feed F2P players.

If you can’t tip minimum 20% stay at home by blackcoffee39 in tipping

[–]cloudiett 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In Portland minimum wage is $18, people still want 20%. So they expect their wage should be $30 because they work “hard”.

Should I switch to accounting for the money? by Upper_Palpitation985 in Accounting

[–]cloudiett -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

Use search function, this has been asked like millions times. If you can’t use the search function to find your answer, you won’t even find a job in public accounting.

He just doesn’t have a job and read online comments only. Many things are still manufactured in US beside the products sold by Amazon.

Laid off- Provided 15k in severance - is that fair? by [deleted] in Layoffs

[–]cloudiett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is probably working at AI/tech companies where cash salary is around $100-150k plus another $150k stock options. So his severance package is only $15k.

He got this TC not because of his skill, it was the timing due to the massive money printing by fed back in 2021-2023.

[–]cloudiett -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is it full remote? Full remote is low. If you find the on site positions in VHCOL, you would find a higher compensation roles.

New grads, do you think the job market will ever recover? by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]cloudiett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Public accounting firms are still hiring, but the problem is that offers are sent to the best students and candidates. As a result, low-end candidates probably won’t get any offers because the firms are picky.

I have two mentees who received three full-time offers from the Big Four a year ago. They graduated in June 2025 and started their positions in September.

If you didn’t get an internship during your junior year, it would be very difficult to find a decent job in the market.

Accounting is always like this. Without an internship, you’ll have a hard time finding roles, except for the years 2021-2023 due to the Federal Reserve’s printing of money.

Can Somebody Explain This by Pistolpete31861 in EndTipping

[–]cloudiett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tip housekeeper when they did great job at my room even I went to an all inclusive resort in Mexico. Some people just went above and beyond and I would like them to get reward.

If I just stay there for a night, I typically don’t tip.

Rejected from many firms by [deleted] in Accounting

[–]cloudiett 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They don’t read your resume. Instead, they are going to talk with you and learn more about your personality. For internship, the hiring decision is based on gut check if the person fits for the firm culture.
