At EY we transfer locations all the time. No permanent seats. Pure hoteling every day at the office.

Easy here, just a formality with HR.

Very easy at Deloitte. You go to the portal and request it, I have never seen anyone denied in 10 years.

Depends on practice but PwC is pretty simple especially since there’s a Northeast practice where you likely have the same team with a presence in different offices

Depends on the firm but it normally goes through some type of approval process.

Just went through this at PwC. It's a streamlined process where you have to internally apply and go through rounds of interviews. Takes some collab with HR, Recruitment, and your current teams to release your time and find a replacement for you.

It’s if you are good

As long as you communicate ahead of time with your current team and come up with a plan to release your time, your PML will take it from there.

Yes it was easy when I did it many years ago. I was going to the Bay Area where they needed people so it was approved right away.

I did and I made a good business case and was performing at a very high level.

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
