PwC Specialist salaries in Pune

... 1) The brand name which will help you bag better opportunities in the future. 2) Salary is better than most other companies (but still not good enough to compensate for the work load). 3) The work environment is pretty casual. 4) The interview process was easy. Cons- 1) There is NO work-life balance. You'll have to work almost all weekends (for 8 to 9 hours each day) in addition to weekdays. 2) Working hours stretch for almost 12 hours everyday. 3) They will hire you for something particular but then make you work on something where you have no expertise absolutely. 4) Leadership is poor. Your manager/director/lead won't help you out or ask if you're facing any issues while working. Whatever you do, is on you only. 5) There are no benefits like leave encashment, comp off, etc. so you'll be left absolutely drained and tired. 6) There are no learning opportunities. Although pwc encourages you to undertake trainings from Coursera, you won't get the time to complete anything of value.

The likes and dislikes may vary based on the project you are in within each stream in PwC. I work in payments transformation in Advisory , here the work like balance is good and the team is supportive, for me.

...e 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.

Worst work life balance is a myth in pwc, management is toxic. They do not treat employee with respect , less pay, more work, no pay for extra time worked , managers will force employee to work from home

It has been great experience working in PwC India for last 2 years. Overall work culture, job satisfaction and quality of work is really good. Also everyone is very supportive whenever needed. Medical Insurance policy is great though copay is raised to 15% from this year. Hybrid work policy is another key aspects here.

...s for learn things as work pressure remains constant and high most of the times. Also compensation wise, PwC is renowned but unfortunately last year hike percentage was very bad. Hope this will improve from the coming years.
