Dislikes

...rself first" 4) No proper communication and HR policies 5) Partner driven firm 6) No investment for employees, looks like they have hired subcontractors and now they have to just pay salary only ( that too very low comparing other companies and even in different vertical of PwC for same JD and Role) 7) Culture of back biting and searching scapegoats 8) Almost all jobs are only Program management, no IT advisory 9) PwC have no negotiation power for benefit of their employees 10) You were expected to be yes man and also there was a whatsapp group where even a slight thing shared by partner would be applauded by 250 members of group 11) Ratings are given irrespective of your objective work or any metrics but mostly on "what partner or your manager feels about you". SO no points of debate or other view points. Even illogical/silly ideas ( which always failed to be implemented/executed properly) but with butter in it would get you better rating. 12) Salary hikes minimal as per market standards 13) No work from home 14) Saturday working without any extra money i.e. 6 days working ( even if your joining letter mentions 5 days) 15) No office infrastructure i.e. you have to sit at Clients place but when submitting proposal they dont even talk about proper workable office from clients thus everyday you have change your office location and that to without any toilets or drinking water nearby sometimes. 16) Even if you raise issues multiple times no action would be taken All the points are common across most of the people working with PwC G&PS. We used to discuss it on daily basis (almost daily). But due to no skilling up or on job training, most of staff got stuck there.

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

...ome 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.

Company pays really well with good hike and bonus every year.

Dislikes

No promotions (you must be fav to mgmt to get one). No body cares about work life balance (coz they are paying you well), make you do the same work even after 10years in the same company (zero skill development).

Likes

Good compensation and facilities. Chances to learn and knowledge gain is also good.

Dislikes

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.

Dislikes

... 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
