 Can anyone share their misconceptions about the Big 4 that they had before joining as a CA article?

Here are a few -

  1. I thought getting into a BIG 4 itself is a huge achievement - No, it’s not. Many others do it too.
  2. I thought BIG 4s overwork people - No, it’s about how efficiently you make time for studying.
  3. I thought BIG 4s won’t be student friendly - No, BIG 4 is an amazing place to do articleship, better than most mid-firms actually
  4. I thought BIG 4 people are snooty - No, they are normal human beings just like us
  5. I thought BIG 4 is worth joining atleast for the stipend - No, it’s totally worth it even if not for the stipend. Stipend is just the cherry on top of the cake.

Why is the Chartered Accountancy course overrated?

-
  Let us assume 1000 people decide to do CA. They appear for  CPT . Only 40% pass.  400 survive They appear for  IPCC . Only 12% pass.  48 survive They appear for  Final CA.  Only 8% pass.  ~4 survive Out of 1000 people who entered the industry, with dreams in their eyes and aspirations of being CA’s, a mere 0.4% were able to achieve it. Now they have to compete to get jobs! Between IPCC and Final CA, your schedule looks like this - Weekdays - 7 to 10 - Attend college in the morning 11 to 8 - Slog in the office By the time you reach home, you realize you got CA stuff to revise, any pending office work to do, you need to talk to your friends (If you still have them), follow your hobbies, etc. Weekends - 6–7 hour classes. For some people even Saturday is working, totally screwing up their work-life balance. Oh wait, for that a CA student needs to have a life! Add to this - outstation audits, college fests you have participated in, any other course you are pursuing and if you are in Mumba

 Is it okay to start practice immediately after clearing the CA final? I have done my articleship in my home town where I want to open my own firm. Generally, it takes about 3 years to break even, if you set up your practice. Kindly note that there are only 3.13 lakh Chartered Accountants in India a of 1.4.2019, of which there are only 1.34 lakh Chartered Accountants in full time practice. For nearly a US$ 3 trillion economy of India, the number of Chartered Accountants in Practice in India is deplorably low. However, the expectations of the different sectors from Chartered Accountants in practice is different, and you will take a couple of years to get to know the nuances of the client expectations on the one hand, and develop required professional skill sets to deftly balance between growth and diversity. Having said that, it will be relatively better, if you are able to become a partner of an existing CA firm, so that you get rich exposure in diverse sectors, different regions and i
