Where within PWC? What office? What’s your YOE? So much missing.

That being said there’s really only one pro that matters, they pay on time.

Tampa office, 5 years, Technology

Currently in the process of interviewing for a SM level tech architect role. DM if you have particular Interview questions.

The Tampa AC? Expect to be paid pennies

Hi all,

I have a offer from
Perficient and joining in 2 months time. Question :
1: how is the company in terms of job security and projects? I work with web analytics
2: How is the hike and work life balance.
3: Attrition rate
4: Hike is good but will it be a safer vet like Accenture Operations?

Need some views from people working there.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone!

I am relatively new to consulting space. I worked with Deloitte in a research role, but have joined an MBB firm at a more front end role.
I have a slightly unconventional question to ask (might be political too), but since this is an anon platform, I hope to get honest answers.

I wish to know does people care about your looks in consulting (specially when you are on a client facing role?)
