At what rate some of you guys face racism? Y'day this guy told me to go back to my country when he tried to cut the cab line in LGA. I'm from NY, so have thick skin but sometimes it's just annoying.

Well done PwC1. I have been called 'fucking Indians' or some version of it. Been mistaken for IT staff frequently. Was not given new opportunities by white managers because of prejudice (finally got a good break because of a brown senior exec who saw I can do the work better than others)

Pros:

- fairly decent place to work (from someone who worked with the Vancouver and San Jose offices). never met a blue badger (permanent employee) who had awful things to say.

- Ashley Goodall (their SVP, Methods & Intelligence) co-authored a brilliant book on leadership and people management called “Nine Lies About Work” that makes me believe they can be an awesome place to work

Cons:

- red badgers had low morale since they’re contract workers and can be terminated at any time

Hello people of San Diego! Would love to hear how y’all are affording to live here comfortably. Please state your company, position, TC, YOE, and do you have a side hustle?
