"Rizq" is solely a matter of one's fate and there is no ceiling as to what a specific person or professional will earn. We can see simple diploma-holder, a poor man of past, today's owner of largest private housing schemes like Bahria Town having wealth of billions of rupees. At the same time we can see the Ph.D doctors earning a few (40-70) thousands per month. So, I cannot give any absolute comments as to any one's Rizq.
As far as CA's earning examples are concerned, we have examples where CAs are earning around 3 to 4 million rupees per month and these examples are not very rare. Needed is the strength, self belief, motivation and Allah's willingness. I wonder if any CA is earning less than 3-5 lac rupees per month after exposure of 5-7 years. The rates you have quoted are only for the first year after qualification. There is always a steep increase in salaries of CAs. I don't know exceptions.
As far as your issue is concerned, small firms definitely have substantial differences when compared to bigger ones and specially the Big 3 firms in Pakistan. Yet, it will depend upon how you learn the things, how motivated, positive and forwardlooking you are, how much good professional relationships you can develop and how you put yourself in the market. There is a need of just one click to a motivated hardworking person and he can do anything better than which you expect of a big 3 trained professional.
I have examples where small firms people have perfromed so well; and in certain cases they are even working at the level of CEOs, let alone the levels of CFO or other similar levels.
In nutshell, yes, there would be a difference with Big3-4-10 people, you will find a very depressing competition when you will put yourself against them for a position etc; YET it is the matter of one chance, which if you get and properly use can introduce you to people differently. For example, if you get a chance to work for some Bank or Insuarnce entity, and you work there for 4-5 years and develop your expertize, people will subsequently know you with reference to that employer and that specific experience, instead of referring back to your firm.
You see everything in life is contingent, and no one including myself and yourself, guarantee you your future and Rizq. We see the cases where people perform outstandingly in big firms and soon after achieving their targets die of accidents. What will you say about them?
So, I cannot conclude what you should do, because of fear of unknown; and humans don't have ability to see what fate carries for them behind the wall.
If you are certain that other profession is very lucrative and rippening of fruit will take no comparable input, time and effort as much it is taking in CA, you can opt that profession. But who knows your assessment would be correct this time? and who knows where our best Rizq has been fixed by the nature.
Pray for yourself and seek guidance from ALLAH; take the decision cool mindedly after taking into account every pros and cons.
I regret to say that this answer is again lengthy and not very much focused, but this has to be done in view of nature of your question.
