PwC referrals DM if needed
Hey everyone, I got a call from Deloitte recruiting on Wednesday of last week discussing salary requirements and location. They told me that the team really liked me and that they were going to work on an offer. I got a call on Friday saying one group has approved the offer but they are waiting on others. I haven’t heard much since then. Should I be worried? How much longer will I have to wait?

No, but Disney takes their interns to PwC

I kind of hope the firm doesn’t go back to that. It was always so frustrating. The entire Intern program was a mess.
The firm sets these interns with up with such an absurd image of what consulting is… and then when they start, it’s up to mid-level managers to deal with their expectations.
I once had a fresh hire, at our day-1 on boarding meeting, tell me they expected to work with me to make sure they could take every Friday off to focus on taking a certification course for a completely unrelated line of work because “they weren’t passionate about what our practice does”.

^more just a general realignment of what a career at PwC realistically looks like, that’s all.
I’m not slandering the firm; I don’t mean to beat up on PwC too much. And it’s a rewarding place to start a career. But in my 8 years there, I just felt like they would fluff these college students up so much, and then strand them at a Hampton Inn in Ohio doing actual consulting work. And the middle managers like myself had to help these people realistically realign expectations on what a career in B4 consulting actually looked like. And it doesn’t typically look like a freshly graduated finance major using blockchain to help JPMC reimagine their entire business.
