Hey everyone. I’m a 30 years old international CPA candidate who passed all the exams in July with no experience in finance or accounting field. Thanks to all the Ninjas and this forum, I’ve been accepted by KPMG transfer pricing and PwC auditing, but I am not sure which to choose for my career. Could anyone with experience in the field give me insight and pros&cons? Or just tell me which to choose.

I listed below what I think is pros and cons for each, which could be totally wrong. Please bare with my ignorance. Thank you all in advance.

KPMG transfer pricing
[Pros]
More opportunities for working internationally
Better salary
In my opinion the firm is better organised or has healthier environment.

[Cons]
Possibly narrows down my future career
Too professional

PwC auditing
[Pros]
Experience in auditing could build up the foundation for my career since I don’t have any experience in the past.

[Cons]
More overtime during busy season
Less salary

REG - PASSED(75)
FAR - PASSED(85)
AUD - PASSED(83)
BEC - PASSED(82)

Biggest tip is to not be an international candidate.
