Hi Tinkerspella,

Hmm I guess it really depends on what you want. For welfare wise...up til now PWC is the best. A lot of changes have been going on in the Big 4...this is mainly due to the change in financial situation. Currently seems all big 4 are suffering from heavy wrkload since there seem to be a certain level of headcount freeze...Deloitte is seem to be more homely in culture...but guess it's slowly changing as well! EY from what I understand is that it's really structured...HTH!

I think they are freezing the recruits for seniors and above. As for fresh grads, they are still employing..

Life is tough in all big 4 but you get to learn...

KPMG and Deloitte are not hiring fresh grads for the 2009 intake anymore.

Heard from my friend that PWC's welfare is only for the beginning ... is it true ??

Deloitte is recruiting. it has already offered contracts to the ntu final year students graduating in 2009.
