How much of Big 4 auditing is client services? Maybe like time spent working with clients versus actual checking accounting accuracy?
This really depends on your level. As a staff associate, I'd say 30% client communication, 70% audit work. As a senior associate, it's 50-50. As a manager, it's 70%-30%, etc.
Kool-Aid alert: This is a perk of staying at the Firms for a while. Things are always changing, and you keep building on your communication skills and learning the art of keeping the client happy.

What are the pros/cons of starting at a big 4 audit practice vs. regional/local/medium audit practice? Can you emphasize the ability/chances of getting promoted as well?
