"Big Four:"

"The Big Four are the four largest international accountancy and
professional services firms, which handle the vast majority of audits
for publicly traded companies as well as many private companies,
creating an oligopoly in auditing large companies."

PricewaterhouseCoopers
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu
Ernst & Young
KPMG

You're one of those companies? Or possibly some other company, that
can't provide its HR department with an email address and has to use
gmail instead.

And doesn't know how to spell the plural of "employee"?

And some may argue that "J2EE" send a signal about being out of touch.

Oh - and according to Wikipedia none of those companies has >190000
employees.

Also note the demand to describe one's *current* base salary. I'm
thinking that this is a disguised survey.

It looks like a common phishing scam. The job application can be used
for identity theft and highly targeted scams. Scammers will even stage
a fake business in a rented or broken-into office to perform interviews,
show off a product, congratulate you on your hiring, and then collect
"training fees."

It could be.

But a survey of people responding to usenet spam will be
heavily biased towards low salaries compared to the population
in general.

Possible. I'd be more inclined to believe that a survey of people
responding to this would be biased towards stupidity. After thirty-odd
years in the workforce I see no strong correlation between salary and
intelligence.

This might be the 'big four' of a different context. For example, a quick
google reveals that the term can also be used to refer to the bands
Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax. I don't know how many employees
those bands have, nor whether they also provide technology services
worldwide. The latter seems unlikely, i admit.

Yes, actually that was my first thought. I'm guessing the context is
"in the poster's own mind" or possibly "only on their adverts."

The original post seems designed to mislead, which is why I jumped on
their phrasing.

Hmm.

Too many PHB's around?
