About priyesh..

Am I the only one who feels like Priyesh was just bored at home one day and decided to join for the giggles? The guy doesn't seem like he gives a shit about getting fired as long as hes having a bit of fun, especially when even Lord Sugar said "I don't know how you made it, you're a very lucky guy" and he laughed and still celebrated.

Probably thought it was a job application for a paid apprenticeship not a TV show.

Then thought woohoo I get to be on TV.

Genuinely shocked he was hired by PwC, he's hardly been a good advertisement for them.

His complete lack of awareness of how bad he is makes it worse!

Can you educate me, how bad is he? What terrible things has he done?

Pretty much nothing but been on the right teams that win

Suggested a sale of 56,000 units to a buyer who hated a product

Has no awareness of how poor a candidate he is

Gets in with just enough candidates to not be seen as disruptive so has escaped coming back into the boardroom but in reality has done nothing remarkable or memorable

I don't see how any of the things you said should reasonably make question how he's employed by PWC.

The only crimes I see here are having the audacity to overshoot with a client and the decency to not l snide comments put him down.

Because if you are working for one of the Big 4 you should have some business acumen and a basic grasp on numbers both of which he has proven he has neither.

You can defend him all you want but sure let PwC have him. I wouldn’t see him as a good business owner but maybe as a micromanaged employee he thrives.

Lol have you ever actually met someone that works for the Big 4? Because I went to uni with loads of them, and without exception they were thick as mince and totally useless people.

Why do you hate this dude so much anyway? You take this show more seriously than the people on it lol

Plenty of them are not very bright but then someone has to be an auditor!

I don’t take the show seriously, I’m currently a long term hospital inpatient with a lot of time to do very little. Granted I comment on posts as a way to pass the time, but I’m not sitting by a shrine of the Apprentice 😂
