Partner-based company but highly politicized and cutthroat behavior and filled with people who lie to profit at the expense of junior employees, especially Kolkata office. Toxic work culture, you have to be very cautious and on your toes to avoid being cornered.

PwC India is one of the worst place to work. It has the bad compensation as compared to market and most of it are Indian projects. Work Life balance is ZERO in PwC India. They make you work for extended hours and in weekends without any allowance. Also, they do not give hike to their employees.

Dislikes

It is not at all a employee centric firm. Dont go by the brand value, especially for PwC India. They have Indian clients and can map you to any projects irrespective of technologies.

Likes

Good compensation, bonus, gifts, shift allowance. Job security. Top management always reachable and respond back.

Dislikes

Work life balance can't be maintained. Technology can change anytime based on project and client demand. Learning opportunities are very limited and completely based on your own capabilities.
