What are EY ITTS hours like in hcol city?
Hello everyone,
I am Data engineer with relevant experience in Big Data and AWS cloud of 8 years and got an offer from axtria.
I read some bad things about the work life balance there, is it true? I am thinking whether to resign or not.
If yes when should I tell them that I am not interested.Axtria

PwC advisory is split into horizontals:
- Management Consulting
- Technology Consulting
- Risk Consulting (not risk assurance)
- Strategy&
Cybersecurity, Forensics, and Deals are considered industry verticals and are independent of the horizontals. Also, this is just advisory, Risk Assurance and Tax have similar roles to consulting, but fall under other lines of service.
Let me know if you want any other details OP
Obligatory EDIT: omg my gold virginity
But no worries OP. I've thought about switching firms too so I understand wanting to get a better idea of things. Feel free to drop a burner or something if you want to talk more.
Our Advisory is split between Risk Consulting (It audit, forensics etc kind of stuff 😒), Management Consulting (Various diverse service lines), and strategy (more so business strat). IT strtagey is a combination of CIOA (within MC) and an IT strategy arm in Strategy
CIO - Advisory (CIOA)
Management Consulting
- Customer
- People and Organization
- Finance
- Operations
I think there may be more but I'm not sure on details. I know there's an MC analytics team and M&A and DDV fit somehow.
Tech Consulting
- Application Technology
- IT Function Transformation
- Data & Analytic Tech
- IT Infrastructure (Cloud)
- Program & Portfolio Mgmt
- Cloud Apps (Oracle, SAP, Salesforce, Workday)
As far as implementation vs strategy, it varies group to group and I really couldn't say. Do you have a specific industry you want to align to?
And idk about salary
OP, it gets quite detailed. Ok, here goes without detailed research (from memory) :
- CIO Advisory:
. IT Strategy
. IT Service Management
. Technology Business Management
. IT infrastructure, Cloud strategy
- People and Change (People Change Management)
- SSOA (Sourcing / Procurement)
- Deal Advisory (similar to CIOA's IT strategy offering group, they can be grey/blend with Strategy)
- State & Local
... I may be missing more... I think there are other industry specific groups.
K1: thanks for your help. I have a few follow-up questions if you don't mind. How much intermixing between teams are there? To what degree of technical skills do you usually see/need in CIO advisory?
Are these yeahs generally geographically split or are there certain hubs where most people are based?
This is a great thread. Thanks op for starting and all others for replies.
K1: how would you describe growth within CIOA? Is it a good practice to be in?
A1, I love CIOA. Really love what I do
K1 & P1 do you have burners?
Guys I'm a Manager in CIOA but under IT strategy
A lot of strategy roadmaps, operating models, Enterprise Architecture, IT transformation especially in Merger/acquisitions and separations.
What's CIOA?
K1: Can you into more detail about the "diverse service lines? That's what I was getting at. please try and avoid shorthand.
P1: Can you explain further how MC & TC are split up? What falls beneath each service line? How much of TC is strat versus implementation?
Are salary bands uniform across MC across firms or do some make more? Exclude Strategy& & Parthenon.
P1: If this was reddit, I'd give you gold. So for starters thank you! Currently doing tech strategy for the public sector. Would like to move to most any other industry excluding healthcare or FS.
How common is mixing of associate/SAs across different practices?
P1: I would share if I had one. If you're ok with sharing what you know publicly, please go ahead. For starters why are you thinking of leaving pwc?
OP, send a burner and we can chat
K1 can you quickly describe what you do? What type of clients? What level you are?
