my life since 3 months ago, hope you survived them yourself!
Now, I think you have to consider all your goals in life/work if you want to make a career in a Big 5. In my office, people usually stays 1 or 2 years, got experience and left for a cute new job in an important company, usually, one of our clients.
But the people who stays and make it for manager and partners, they have no family time, short vacations time, and have to be always ready if someone (seniors, etc.) screw up something with a client.
On the other hand they make *a lot* of money that balances the sacrifices...so, what would you want, a real life or a career?
Good luck! |

I don't what planet your on, buthe big 5 do not pay well for the work they do. I spent 5 years in NYC at a big 5, trust me the pay sucks and nobody in corporate america respects the big 5, not even the parnters. Best advice, get experience, go to graduate/law school and get a real job for real money with respect!
