Nothing good in Big4 with respect to technology consulting as they don’t have any product or solution of their own.

Dislikes

Specific to technology consulting only - 1. People don’t have adequate experience or expertise. 2. It’s a partner driven organisation. So no company culture. 3. Steve Jobs once said to consultants- “Do some real job” 4. The entire team runs on Google search and chat Gpt. Almost zero field experience.

Likes

Good learning, brand identity, good pay

Dislikes

Very toxic culture, some of the senior leaders in PwC's very own HR team lack basic work ethics & people management skills. Individuals in leadership roles are promoted based on their results but compeletely ignoring their behavioural aspects. I dont think this review would even matter to them.

The firm helps you to improve yourself in a very short span of time and hones your skill in much better way than other firms. The work process, standardisation, work methods etc. in firm helps you to maintain quality and impactful deliverables. Also, having opportunity to work with multiple stakeholders and some of them are at higher position help you to improve yourself in stakeholder management and your soft skills....Read More

To follow critical deadlines and profitability, you have to work in multiple engagements along with internal work. This may lead to doing hectic work for extended hours on regular basis and affect work life balance.

Great people, great environment although this may differ from project to project and individual people behavior. Perks are very good. High cover health insurance, L&D benefits, awesome flexibility and additional self enrolled fund benefit for near and dear one (applicable on individual selection)

Dislikes

Sometime some leadership do micro management which affects adversely to the mental health. Major dislike is initially you will get a good salary if you switch from any other company to PwC. But in appraisal expecting much may disappoint you.

Likes

Promotions and learning opportunity

Dislikes

1. Culture after CoE introduction 2. Bad politics within team 3. High Management's attitude 4. Salary appraisal- now it's comparable to any service based companies and promotion doesn't have any effect in your salary hike

Likes

Compensation

Dislikes

As far as my team is concerned, the work culture is pathetic, you don't get appreciation or any feedbacks for improvement, all you get is a warning not to fail. The pay is good but the work life balance is way too bad. I have had my share of health issues due to heavy workload and long working hours. I am even planning to quit my job.

Likes

Some what got money but that too if you want to work like a slave.

Dislikes

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

1. There is enough potential for growth if you like to work in the offshore segment. 2. The salary is good. 3. Good experience if you want to move out of India in other AC's or Onshore teams. Although there have been less opportunity to move to the onshore team recently.

Dislikes

1. There is no concept of work life balance. There seems to be busy season all around the year specially in EUM and TMT Industry. 2. If your manager has a habbit of micromanagement then it is going to be very difficult to grow in your job. 3. Minimal to no client facing audit experience.

There is a lot of learning opportunity and if you are willing to do the hard yards, you will get recognition from the upper management for your good work.

Dislikes

Too Much unnecessary work pressures and tight deadlines. Also, they expect you to work in multiple projects simultaneously. Mostly the leads are totally work-focussed so your work life balance is not a concern for anyone.

Likes

Salary, Appraisal, Promotion is good here and people get that without much followup and request.

Dislikes

No job security Short term projects. Random project assignment irrespective your skillets.

The working hours are flexible in a day Scope for learning & development from the training aspects The culture at the company and the working environment/colleagues are the best

Dislikes

Worst work satisfaction as the work is very manual and not suitable for a person with CA degree Busy season is literally a nightmare and induces anxiety with Seniors putting constant pressure And off-season is literally completely opposite with literally zero utilization (unless cross teamed) If you want to go into the industry again, this experience wouldn't be counted

I am pretty sure people who want to join this company will consider Big 4 as a main criteria and this exactly has been the biggest disappointment for me. I felt like i am working in some start up with no proper procedures in place. No body knows what to do with no clear understanding of responsibilities. Client deliverables are a joke. I have seen onshore mangers asking to pass test cases with jugad their only concern is completion of task before time and removing it from their bucket. They treat India resources as labour with no consideration of their time. I have been pulled into late night calls and they don’t even ask if i have any plans or is it late. The biggest issue has been people with no talent and knowledge of the subject matter seating in senior management positions and this translates to hell lot of pressure on developers....Read More
