Big Four accounting firms require a high level of personal investment that may hinder women's career progression, especially if they come from a culture that expects them to prioritise their family.
This conference will examine how cultural gender social norms influence the possibility for Professional Migrant Women to take an active role in the professional sphere of Big Four accounting firms in Luxembourg.
The presentation will then highlight the interplay of factors that enable Professional Migrant Women to distance themselves from their cultural gender norms and thus progress in their careers.
