Salary hike.
Leaders are totally useless & inefficient when it comes to HR & admin Department. Shakir Iqbal, Pemanand, Karthi Palanikumar are pathetic employees and have no work ethics. Vikas Aggarwal - Director from the contingent Workforce management team is one the most incompetent leader I have seen. He regularly abuses his team & gives no growth. Should be fired immediately on compliance ground.

Just Big4 by name.extream work pressure.micromanaging
They terminated me by just saying you have a poor performance without even telling the reason properly.when I asked them to give me proper reason they didn't give any.but they were cutting their resource because of the less budget of the project.but the reason they have was poor performance so that I can not fight anywhere for the unlawful termination

The projects were super good. Have built a whole new process for smooth running of the company
India’s Admin Management never appreciates people who ask questions and sucks at managing including the India head Mr. Sukhminder Singh and his shoe licker subordinates.

Excellent job security and work life balance if you are good at your work.
Management is highly manipulative and can become toxic at times if you do not go with the flow.

The likes and dislikes may vary based on the project you are in within each stream in PwC. I work in payments transformation in Advisory , here the work like balance is good and the team is supportive, for me.
We may work with teams in other regions such as US and UK. Sometimes it is difficult to bridge the work culture gap and may feel like a struggle to do so. Initial compensation discussions are a bit frustrating since the hr wont budge to your negotiations. Hence the salary wont be what is expected when moving companies.
Work policy: When the team gets together, could be once in a week or once in 2 weeks.

Nothing as such
When I was hired they confirmed me that the work will match my previous job role and structure, later I found that I need to compete with the CA's on Financial Services and statements. As a B.tech and Masters in Business Analytics it was not a cup of tea for me. Still I tried to my best , one day I visited my Senior Manager and asked her to put me to some desired project I explained the situation I mentioned above , I was shocked to know the same person interviewed me and with a Question mark on serious note she was telling me Aren't you from the Financial Background? I was shocked and stunned. Phase 2- I suddenly had a serious medical urgency with my dad , with a critical Spine Surgery, I took the WFH permission from my Leads and HRBP on the same, still with each day I was humiliated . I was completing my work after coming back from hospital from 8.30pm at night till 4am in the morning , instead of any Thanks or Appreciated mail I was getting a call from my Manager and she was claiming myself a Shit in work culture, I was not claiming any extra amount for my work . After all these I came out of PwC without any offer because for me keeping my mental health to be stable is a big issue....Read More

Some what got money but that too if you want to work like a slave.
1. They don't know how to run IT services as they were more into taxation. 2. You need to make so many people happy in order to get promotion. 3. Thier leaders do not have any leadership qualities. 4. Your voice will not be heard. 5. No Job Security. 6. Very much micro management. 7. Every one is unhappy. 8. So much politics. 9. Every one begging for projects like anything. 10. Full of Sadness everywhere. 11. To much working hours. 12. False committment to clients cause people suffer at downstream. 13. You are restricted for everything you do. 14. Large number of small duration projects hence no learning and much pressure. 15. People laid off over call my personal experience. 16. Laying off is hidden from client. 17. Client is god even if client does not know the business. 18. Bring in small client like any level 5 website....Read More

Worst Company ever seen
If you get a supportive team then you may survive for long run otherwise its hard to survive there, just for sake of Experience & tag of big four you can join. But if your team is toxic then you may face stress & depression everyday w.r.t time sheets ,work allocation. There is huge politics in kolkata office you may face discrimination too if you are from other cities. There is no affirm policy for daily total working hour, promotion & hike....Read More

They have wide variety of technologies.
I'd like to caution against certain job openings at PwC, specifically those in the Kolkata SDC. Despite having access to various technologies, management's approach to learning and development is limited, with decisions often prioritizing company billability to clients over employee growth. The management style is inadequate, with alack of focus on scaling individual employees' competencies. Instead, resources are often burdened with irrelevant training programs. Furthermore, there appears to be a disconnect between the US directors and partners, who seem to be unaware of the actual technology being used. They seem to rely on trendy buzzwords rather than in-depth knowledge. Overall, I would advise caution when considering job openings in this particular PwC location....Read More

At PwC India, there won't go a day which will be dull with monotonous work. Learning at PwC is immense. You get to meet C-suite leaders and work closely with them.
Fake sense of Urgency at every instance. And there is no work life balance at all.

Got Negative vibes Right from Induction Day. A previous batch Induction recording was played for 2 days. HR are not reachable from the start of joining date. Everything has to self learned from the start. Any person having 1/2 experience would find it very challenging to navigate during start of 3-4 months. Lacks transparency about the job role during interview causes real trouble. Please ask for clarity during interview itself. Regret leaving my previous company for this role in PWC. Ended up working extra hours sometimes from morning 6 am tillnight 1.30pm, working even on a sunday and realised this was not what I signed up for and resigned....Read More

Managers are super supportive. You get the freedom to work on your ideas and articulate them to the client directly.
Salary hike is not good. Promotions depends on office politics rather than your skillsets. Sometimes if there is no project with your team then the entire resource cluster stays unproductive for months. Switching to other team is next to impossible.

There is a work life balance thing where you can spent time with your loved ones. Also, you get a good hike than other related companies.

It's totally depends upon manager, this time I got terrible manager (lady) who is not giving any work to me and if on request of uper manager I received any work then also she asks me to charge half an hour only for individual return which is not fair.
