KPMG? I have a couple of friends that work in their downtown office here.

You had a 25% chance, so good guess. JK not KMPG

I don't know who the big 4 are. I only know KPMG because I know people that work there

Arizona, Colorado, and Oklahoma City.

Austin and San Antonio are great but, you can travel there on your own easily. If you weren't already in Texas San Antonio and Austin would be at the top of the list.

It all depends on the time of the year.

I can't speak on Tulsa, but OKC seemed really interesting.



Being from the midwest, I make it to each of these places quite a bit.

OKC is awesome with the Bricktown area. It's one of the best downtown reconstructions in the United States. Awesome place to spend a weekend or night out if you are a young person. Throw in the Thunder and the OKC Redhawks, and it's not a bad place for work travel.

Tulsa's downtown is a little less exciting, but there is still stuff to do. They have 2 venues that pull in smaller music talent and then the BOK Center gets any big name artist you can think of. Also lots of lakes and mountain biking in the area for the outdoorsy types.

Hopefully give the OP an unbiased perspective from someone who spends a lot of time in each area.

I gotcha
For future reference, it's Deloitte, EY, KMPG, and PwC

That's true, but I can make a little extra money if I drive and get reimbursed for mileage

In that case take okc out and sub one of the others in. . Probably Austin because you can hit up San Antonio coming from or going to your Austin assignments. San Antonio is a great city and highly under-rated by the OT crowd. .

This sounds like an exciting time in your life. I wish you much success!

I move to PHX in August to start my job. May have to get together and grab a beer if you make it there. I'm going to be a long way from home, but looking forward to what the future has in store.

I won't have a say when I travel to these cities, so I was just asking in general.

That's what I've heard, so hopefully I'll get a chance to see it for myself.

Yeah. You're not going to have any time to do anything but grab a bite to eat.
