What happens when the dream of becoming a Big Four partner starts to lose its shine? 

In this episode, we unpack why the traditional career path at PwC, Deloitte, EY, and KPMG might not be what it used to be — and what that means for folks on the partner track.

Is the equity partner model fading — and how should professionals and investors adapt to this quiet shake-up?

Here’s what you’ll learn:

✅ Why fewer people are being promoted to equity partner at the Big Four

✅ The rise of the “non-equity partner” — title prestige without profit sharing

✅ How economic pressures and slower growth are reshaping firm structures

✅ What this shift means for ambitious professionals charting long-term careers

⚠️ Heads up: These dynamics can vary by country, and data from private firms is limited — so each geography/market will have it’s own specific scenario unfolding.
