Dude, who do you audit for now?

I just quit auditing, its for boring misfits, dont doit.

Ok, ive had my rant, well its up to you man, do you like auditing? are you willing to do it for long hours and take responsibility? if so go for it. PwC is obviously a well respected firm, its just whether or not you can stand the long hours and pressure you will endure there.

Well, let me be one of the first to welcome you =] When is your start date?

The work life is pretty good and whilst you might be expecting me to post some PR-sounding bluff, I honestly don't have anything bad to say. Of course I'm an undergrad so I probably don't have as much pressure on me as say a senior, and when I say pressure, there is a huge shift in focus for our firm nowadays. I'd say more but I think it's best to keep this discussion off the boards so feel free to msn me mate.

Cheers.

Everyone doesn't use the same terminology. That means nothing to me.
