Outstation audit in big 4

One response

1. Yes, it is generally true that the Big 4 firms (Deloitte, PwC, EY, and KPMG) may have fewer outstation audits compared to smaller firms. This is often due to the nature of their client base and the types of services they provide. The Big 4 tend to work with larger clients that may have multiple locations, but they often conduct audits more centrally or at their main offices rather than having extensive outstation assignments.

   However, this can vary by firm, region, and the specific Audit engagement. Some Big 4 teams might handle outstation audits if their clients operate in multiple locations or if there are requirements for fieldwork in different areas. It’s also worth noting that the frequency of outstation audits can differ based on the Audit cycle, client needs, and specific projects. If you’re considering a career in auditing, it might be helpful to ask this question during recruitment processes or connect with current employees for more insights specific to particular firms or locations.
