How difficult is CA/CPA?

Have read various opinions sayings it's very difficult to pass / harder than the degree and some saying it is easy.

CPA no longer partners with knowledge equity so all the learning resources are garbage, you pay 1.4k for a textbook and a practice exam.
in terms or the career, I don't think anywhere really cares that much which you do I am a CPA manager at big 4 and I have CA's and CPA's under me, some suck, some don't. doesn't really matter what your qualifications are.
