Used to be full day at PWC back in the day when I took it. Probably the same now. Have no clue about Deloitte though.. Reach out to HR and ask?

PwC you get the day of the exam off and the day before to study

PwC got ride of that 5 years ago but it was never enforced. It will depend on the managers and seniors.

I think we allow half days for taking the exam, not a full day. Not sure how it is at PwC

Took my first vacation (1 week) in over a year to visit family. Was bombarded by emails from one partner asking me to complete non-time sensitive motions, which he hasn’t even bothered to review. This is my third firm in three years (first I left as I was severely underpaid, second I left for a 100k increase in salary), but this lack of respect for my boundaries has made me want to move again once I’ve completed 18 mos. Bad? They don’t do this to the other associates (all male).

Should I talk to PWC and ask for a raise?
