    Hi Community –

    Need advice. Currently I’m doing an internship at one Big 4 firm but considering starting at another for full-time. It’s not due to performance or co-worker issues but due to long-term career issues.

    I sense that current firm I am at has had bad experiences with people not from area due to people leaving too early. Thus, people are hesitant to work with me long-term or invest. New firm has more people not from area and confirmed with inside sources this is not an issue at new firm.

    Thoughts…?

    Did you mean to use “whey” in your name? On my Whey is a great name for a gym junkie!

    I spoke to an ancient wise man who sent me on a mushroom induced journey through an ancient forest to find the key to passing the CPA exam. A talking spider monkey told me to throw the last of my drinking water in the dirt to find what I was looking for. So I followed his instructions and the following message appeared in the soil:

    "Do 5000 multiple choice questions for each section"

    Onmywhey,

    I would go with the one that offered you a full time job. Either that or use the offer you do have to leverage an offer from the Big 4. It's a reasonable to tell the Big 4 you have a full time offer and if they can't extend the same then you have to leave.

    Take what is the best offer on the table (not just the biggest $$$)

    It's not always about the money. If the culture is better, go with that firm. You want to be there for the long-run, so you better be able to work with others
