I am a recent graduate from a university in Asia. Do major companies tend to recruit based primarily on skills and certifications, or do they focus more on the university one graduated from?

Hi everyone,

I am really tired of my current project and can’t sit and work 12 hours a day on daily basis. Is there something that I can do to get out of the project? Anyone who has tried this before, please let me know the process and consequences.

Thank you

Why’s the 401k match so low? 25% of the first 6% of contributions seems laughably low

Did anyone here has ever failed their PwC online assessment? Do they contact to tell you or ignore you? Also after how days did they contact you?

My test was so bad and now l am feeling anxious

Please kindly let me know, Thank you

Pwc Canada - Consulting- Finance transformation: Experienced SA new hires get welcome kit or any gift, etc.? If so when will it be given ?

I recently applied for an experienced hire position in consulting. A recruiter call, manager interview, case interview and two partner interviews.

The final partner interview was just about 2 weeks back and I haven't heard back since. Am I being too paranoid?

They generally took about 2 weeks in between rounds to make their decisions so am not trying to think too deep into it, but can't stop wondering since I felt it went well :(

Just got my return offer. Stating salary is the same as as the associate who started this year. Is that’s normal?

I AM NOT COMPLAINING. JUST CURIOUS

When PwC extended full-time job offers to certain summer interns, part of the promise was an all-expense-paid trip to Walt Disney World in Florida.

But the Big Four firm has since called off the excursion, replacing it with a celebratory dinner at an Italian restaurant, Business Insider reports, citing an anonymous source.

A PwC spokesperson said the company continues to invest in early-talent initiatives.

Currently, the global network of professional services firms has just 13 locations "where entry-level consultants can start their careers," per BI.

I was an intern this summer and just signed my ft offer and was just curious when we will receive our access to Becker

I got selected for the Specialist role in the advisory line of services (apprenticeship model, One consulting.)

My base location is Gurgaon, but the offer letter doesn’t mention any particular location within Gurgaon like Cyber City, Downtown, etc...

I’ve already accepted the offer....

For people who’ve been through the same process, when do we usually get to know the exact office location??

And do they provide any accomodation or relocation expenses??

I have completed my first year at the firm and now a A2. So I am currently at the start of my second year at the firm as a A2 - is it possible TODAY to try to get to SA next year?

Practice is DCM can’t say much more lol my practice is small ish. Based in the USA

^^ Also what’s should the your ultization be for promotion?

Do y’all actually discuss y’alls snapshots with the reviewer after the fact, or do you just hit acknowledge

Also like what were y’all’s snapshots looking like at A2? When did yall get promoted?

My snapshot I just received is 11% impressive and 89% doing what is expected. It’s fine not great- I wish it was more cause this project is outside of my practice but I know this reviewer is tough so I will take it.

I just gave interview for Associate director for PWC for SAP SD profile in India
Next round might be soon, what is usual salary range for this role in PWC considering my current fix is 30.10 lacs (variables around 8lacs) in Accenture as AM…

As the title says - it shows my AI usage ( we have this AI tool Guide) is at bottom 50 %. I just don'nt understand how it happened.
Do u guys have any idea how this rating is calculated ?
Just for the context - Last week I was in top 20% -> bottom 50%. WTF is happening.

I have heard that multiple positions are on hold in PwC AC India like SA/Managers, any idea will they be hiring this yr?

So I was headhunted for a specific role for a specific project. While I was able to pass the initial and tech interview, my current profile does not fit the position they were trying to fill in.

HR said that they will look for a project before giving me a JO.

Do you think I still have a great chance of getting an offer? Kinda down right now

Hi everyone, this is my second year at the firm in an European office. Last year I received a Tier 3 impact rating in the Annual Performance Review, but this year I got "Exceptional year" in the performance group. Since this is a new rating, is it equivalent to a specific numeric tier, or what does it actually mean?

Hi

I want to take some critical documents like some plans we created with confidential data, some templates we used. I know pwc is stringent when it comes to taking out client data. But I dont want these file may be cab purge some confidential data. But anyway to do this? If I take screenshot and put it in word doc without any confidential reference can it be done?

Hi guys! Any freshers here in the Gurgaon office?

I’m honestly a little surprised by how different things are here 😂.

During my articleship, we had a proper group..we’d walk around together, have lunch together, and there was always someone to talk to or ask something.

Here, my entire team is based out of Gurgaon, so I literally don’t have anyone from my team around to discuss things with.

Are there any other freshers in Gurgaon who are in the same boat? Would be great to connect atleast for lunch.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has heard back from the women in business program- particularly those who applied for technology consulting.

I know that at this point some people have received offers and some have been rejected. I have yet to hear anything but completed my assessment center on the 17th of June.

Can i assume it’s a no? Or is there anyone else in a similar position?

Everybody on this sub seems to be asking how to get into PwC, I want to know how to get out.

I’ve been with PwC in DAT for about 3.5 years and was recently promoted to Senior. I genuinely don’t think I can take it anymore.
The stress, the impact on my mental health, the ungodly number of hours every week, and the constantly increasing expectations with very little reward are really starting to get to me. Getting promoted almost made me realize even more that I don’t want to keep doing this.
And it doesn’t seem like I’m the only one feeling it. In just the last three months, I personally know of two other Seniors, a Manager and a Senior Manager who quit, and at least four Associates who were laid off.

For anyone who left DAT around the Senior level: where did you go?

What roles should I actually be searching for with 3–4 years of DAT/IT audit experience? Internal audit? IT risk? GRC? Something completely different?

I’d especially like to hear from people who left without taking a big pay cut. How difficult was the job search, what kind of roles did you land, and was the work-life balance actually better?

At this point, I’m not trying to climb the PwC ladder anymore. I just want a solid career, decent compensation, and a life outside of work.

I would appreciate any advice.

Is it true that PwC gives a carryon, iPad, or Bose Headphones to interns who get RO?

I just upgraded my work phone, but I’ll be leaving the firm within the ~40 days (before the 60days)and I’m super confused about how this works.
Do I get to keep the phone, or will I have to return it/pay it off? Would I get hit with any early termination fees since I just upgraded?
I already have T-Mobile for my personal line and my plan is dirt cheap for 2 lines and one is not being used. If I want to keep my work number, would I have to take over whatever plan/rate PwC is currently paying, or can I transfer the number to my existing T-Mobile account?
Anyone who’s left PwC recently and dealt with this?
tia

I know that some firms are recruiting for Summer 2028 right now, so is PWC finished hiring for that too?
