Articled at a Big 4 and just switched to industry a month ago with a mid-cap company looking to go public in a couple years. Loving it so far, got a 30% pay increase and a more consistent schedule.

I find it's pretty difficult to get into industry directly from public practice in Vancouver. You need a lead time of about 6-9 months to land something good. All the recruiters I've spoken to say the economy is pretty shit right now and there is an abundance of CAs. Pretty much everyone is designated these days. I'd say about 40% of the peers in my year went to either New York or San Fran.
