Job change

Ok, although I would never change, I am interested in what others here think:

If you were pretty much starting out in your career, have a years experience so far in bg4, Transfer pricing and had the opportunity to change employment and work for a very small, unknown, quite new firm that does a few things but does some small PE work and also does some m&a advisory as an analyst for them, which would you choose? Stay in the TP at big4, or move to the other work?

It sounds exciting, but feels too early on in career even if I wasnt enjoying TP. As in need a few solid years behind at big4, that way cna always fall back on it, especially if it doenst work out at small unknown shop

Do you really write like this? I understand its the internet but come on. Also what does this even mean "Ok, although I would never change". So you have already made a decision and just want to hear what we think?

Personally I believe you should stick with your current job. You haven't been fired yet and I would not recommend you start a new job where it may require typing/writing words rather than dealing with numbers.
