I think this notion of top tier or big 5 being more "safe" has to be put in a context.
There is a sense of working for a boutique that it is more risky but I actually think it is a work environment issue. Most boutiques nurture an environment where you should take risks because the rewards are very high. Risks, in the sense of the way you appraoch a problem, how you think, the ideas you come up with, etc. At top tier firms and big 5, the environment is less conducive to taking these risks. The environment is much more conservative and structured. |
