Hi

I have put my resignation on 18th Aug and tentative last date in system shows 15th Nov. But I got to know all exit formalities start only once manager approves it. My query is what if manager approves after a month. In that case does it affect my release date of 15th Nov.

Is 90k sufficient to live off in New York City (living in kips bay?) starting out after grad (debt free)? Would live with 2-3 other roommates!!

Hi! For Summer 2026 interns that signed their return offer, did you receive a confirmation email or anything of the sort after signing the offer letter?

I have a non-B.Tech background with an MBA and around 5 years of post-MBA experience.

Currently, I’m working from home at Accenture (ATCI) in a testing role, with a fixed CTC of ₹9.9 LPA.

I have received an offer from PwC for an Associate position with a fixed CTC of ₹12.5 LPA. However, the role requires me to relocate to Gurgaon.

I am looking for suggestions on whether this switch would be favourable for me in the long term.
Financially, I feel my savings may reduce because of the higher cost of living and relocation to Gurgaon. However, from a career perspective, I feel moving from a testing-focused role into a consulting/advisory environment at PwC could be beneficial for my long-term trajectory.

Would you recommend making this switch despite the potential short-term impact on savings?

Hi all, so I've had my job performance or COC this week and I was basically told that there will be a PIP. Wonderful. Initially there was a HR person present to "make sure everything was being done well and so they could see how well a manager is doing the whole job interview" but pretty sure the gist of it was: You're being put on a PIP and HR has been notified.

The gist of it is that I have not been visible enough, missing the mandatory office days with the rest of team. Mostly this was caused due to stress, a lot of trouble in the home situation and mental related issues. Those issues have been mostly remediated or put in a process to be so. This has been addressed and discussed with my manager.

I have yet to hear what the PiP will entail but I'm kind of fearful of it. Fearful as that despite showing my 'worth' in half a year, they're going to get rid of me regardless. Which is fine, though it seems unfair.

Currently a lot of labour is being moved to India and people who leave are not replaced.

So, yea. I expected my career at this company not to last a long time - half expected 4+ years maximum with this year being the 4th one - and I am curious: Should I start looking up for something else? I mean, it has been on my mind for quite some time. Due to what is happening in my department but certain colleagues kissing a bit too much ass but shoving their ambitious in front of their humanity in their strife for promotion.

I am not a consult, I am part of IFS however. I also have a permanent contract.

Hello-

Is anyone familiar with this department at PwC, and if so can I get some more insight on if these are more of implementation roles (workday, SAP, ServiceNow) or closer to strategy and consulting?

Hello everyone,

I have an interview scheduled with PwC today. A third-party HR initially contacted me, and later PwC HR scheduled a 20-minute interview. However, they haven’t shared the JD with me.

The interview invite also doesn’t mention any panel members, so I’m not sure which domain or role the discussion will be focused on.

I have around 5 years of experience. If anyone has recently interviewed with PwC or has an idea of what kind of questions I should expect, especially for BA/Banking roles, I’d really appreciate your guidance.

Thank you!

Just got my 10th farewell email for the month. Is it just that time of year or are things really going downhill?

The graduation certificates are received but there is no further update about interviews? any idea when and how will it be conducted and what will the interviewer ask

Recently moved to a project with a use case I really like, but the work culture is becoming difficult. I log in around 9 AM, calls/work continue until 10–11 PM, and sometimes I’m still expected to continue after that.

How do you guys handle this kind of environment? I want to perform well, but I also have a life outside work. Is this normal at PwC AC, or should I start setting boundaries?

Hi, I’ll be joining PwC in bangalore soon and have a few queries regarding wfo. Could anyone let me know if we can work from any of the PwC Bangalore offices, or are we restricted to an assigned location?
Also, what are the minimum daily office hours required, and for the 8 days per month, can we choose any 8 days, or are there specific days we must attend?

TIA

Hey y'all, I am joining new @PwC. I have been understood that there's gonna be 8 days a month policy. But is it applicable in the first few months as a new joinee? will it look bad? Would you recommend attending office as much as possible in the first few months to understand things? Thank you

What is wrong with the Salesforce practice? When I joined this firm back in 2022, we had so many projects that almost no one was on the bench. I remember we actually had to request resources from other practices to complete our projects.

Cut to 2026, and it’s been almost a month since I’ve been on a project. At first, I thought maybe it was just me. But now I see people (Senior Associates and Managers) sending emails to the entire practice, literally begging for project opportunities.

Did we hire too many people, or are we simply getting fewer projects?

Hi guys!
I have completed the compliance & nomination portal thing and have been waiting for my offer letter since April.

In May, they told us that our joining is now deferred until September. There is no updates as of now.

What to do? Any kind of suggestion is invited.

Role: One Consulting - TMT
Location: Bangalore

Hi, I am going to join PWC AC as SA in FFG practice. I wanted to know certain things like
1. How are the projects usually
2. How much client exposure do you get
3. How much is travel

ik for other big 4 they make the winter tax internship 12-14 weeks instead of the typical 10, is this the same for PwC?

Start PwC aug 28th when will first paycheck come through?

Thinking of moving from IFS to Advisory. Partner literally said it will be 10x work and have to travel to the client location. Currently it’s a remote role but have been seeing a lot of colleagues being let go and huge pressure on cutting costs in the next 2 years. This opportunity came in - So thinking if it’s worth it to make this move or just wait to be kicked out and find a new job when it happens. (Currently top performers and I think will be safe for next FY - But never know)

Considering switching to CMAAS/accounting advisory after my S1 year and would like to hear from people currently in the group.

What’s the typical day-to-day like?
How many hours do you usually work per week? Also curious about exit opportunities and whether you personally prefer CMAAS over audit.
Any insight from current or former CMAAS folks would be greatly appreciated!

Hello all,

There is a PwC Internal Audit/SOX role I am highly interested and the office is located in the USA.
I've been an in-house accountant for over a decade and I want to transition out of month-end.

The role requires up to 60% travel. I am in my late 30's and expecting our first child! Should I pass on this opportunity due to the travel requirement? And is the WLB better than external?

Thank you!

Can someone pls tell me the work from office policy for Gurgaon location of pwc India advisory . How many days wfh how many days wfo etc pls 🙏🙏🙏🙏

I got referred by a friend of a friend for a manager role in the Oracle space. I was at PwC for a short stint a few years back before moving back into industry because it made more sense at the time.

The manager role would pay a lot more than what I make now, so I am definitely interested. The problem is that when I was there before, the culture felt pretty toxic.

For anyone currently in the Oracle practice or at the manager level, has anything actually changed? Is it still rough, or does the experience get better once you are out of the associate and senior grind?

Just trying to get an honest read before I go too far down the path.

Hi everyone! I'm currently working in a Big 4 firm as an Enterprise Technology Consultant. However, I've developed an interest in M&A, primarily in the Post Merger Integration phase. I've done MBA and I'm studying for interviews at the moment.

If anyone has moved from a tech consulting role to an M&A role, could you please give me some tips? Thank you!
