Yes. I went EY to pwc and had many many exit conversations trashing pwc. Most of the team did not want to stay in contact with me. Once at pwc it was constant trashing of EY.

Hello!
I was wondering what kind of contractual or other barriers I might face if I apply for one of the big 4 while working on a project with them in my current company.
I am not too involved in the project but I was in a few meetings and went on a field trip with them as well.
The position that I am applying for is in a different team and city.
Will this considered “poaching” if the consulting firm hires me? Would they need to talk to my current employer?
