In terms of flexibility both are same , tough working hours , tight schedule etc.

but as per my view stat. audit will be more challenging and good for your career.

all the best

@ jyoti

Dont loose an oppurtunity, few lucky ones get big4's for thier artcshp, u dont know the value of pursuing arcshp from big4?, and talking about survival, u have to work hard in any firm u join, but where u would get such kind of fame & Money (Stipend), besides u would get other facalities as well, life is enjoyble in big4, beleive me.

Hii Jyoti ,

First of all congrats.I was asking the same questions before entering into Big 4's but when I joined I came to know a lot of things about them.Its tough like hard workings hours,lesser holidays etc. but there are lot of things to learn and know in a specified area.Remind that only in a 'Specified Area'.Rest its totally depends on your perfomance.If job is your ultimate aim then you should definitely go for it.

Best of Luck 4 ur carrer.
