    Dislikes

    Management...too much politics even if you are a senior associate managers will make a ruckus and put the blame on you to save themselves Pay is not that good compare to other big4 Work is also not that good they pretends they have the best tools but none of them works for what it is created and they will start creating another one with half or not working tools because of this they say you should not charge time as we have tools but all the work is done by human manually Culture which I have never seen in PWC. The team members don't even know each other. Working hours well you don't have any you work around the clock and sleep in between for 3-4 hours. Let's say that you had a deadline and you worked till 5-6 in the morning. The loving manager will want you to attend the 9:30 daily call even if you are asleep after doing the work he wanted and then get angry when you don't attend. That level petty people works here

    Compensation package - CTC . Company should really improve on the CTC part . They should pay/ retain employees how much they actually deserve rather than going by the average standard market hike.
