PwC Consulting Department Salaries in Chennai

Likes

PwC is good in terms of job security unless you are a consistent low performer who doesn't take responsibility for his/her career. Not a great paymaster but has high brand value in the market. So, experience at a Big 4 firm adds value to profile

Dislikes

Salary is decent and career growth depends on factors beyond individual performance. Learning aspect was not given much importance but now online learning through LinkedIn initiative is a good step taken .

...es are immense. Try working for the Indian partner firms and not the US offices. The growth there, will be better despite the lower pay. Work life balance in the ACs (US offices) are better Work life balance in the Indian partner firms is a lot worse and more client facing Pay in the US offices is far greater but stagnates as the growth opportunities are lower. The firm is also quite middle manager heavy, creating a sort of glass ceiling. The Indian firms tho a lot more demanding have benefits with added client exposure, more autonomy on decision making and your own running projects.

In the US partner firms, the US engagement team calls the shots and you’re an offshore resource. You do have a say in the decision making process and get to experience the end to end delivery but rarely will be running an entire project on your own. The above varies not just within the PwC teams but also within the individual client delivery teams. So your mileage may vary. Over all still a great place to learn and way above a lot of other firms from an Advisory point of view. Can’t say much about the Assurance, Audit or Managed Services teams.

Dislikes

...12%-40% on reward statement. But you will get 3% of bonus at the end of year 😆. 2) they deduct insurance premium from salary. Before joining ask for high pay . Performance doesn't matter here for promotion .only good connection with managers important 😂. Lots of politics . Be ready to work on weekends.no personal life . 1 source working on multiple projects. Even If any task get delayed due to multiple project assignment, they gone blame you only . Your health is not important. You die but you have to complete your work.

Dislikes

No work life balance at all. Pay is never up to the mark. There can’t possibly be a more toxic work culture than this company. Over working is so extreme that working till 2 even on weekends is considered normal and expected. People who try to set boundaries are seen as incompetent and lazy.

Less than average salary. Favouritism in giving appraisals. Flattering is a must for promotion, need to be on toes for your partner/boss. Not much work life balance. No comp off or monetary compensation if you are working at client site on a lot of Saturdays No HR policies on this.
