I am Offered 29.5fixed by PwC for SA (L2). Currently on 25fixed. Should I join ? In terms of WLB.! My current employer on fishbowl shows Deloitte but have left Deloitte a year back. Currently in a firm with good WLB but PWFH is a big win for me that PwC is offering.
Any guidance or fist hand experience sharing is highly appreciated.
Who else is working Monday-Thursday this week?

Culture - generally collaborative in the sense that you’re asking. We all know there are limited seats at the next level but 1) voluntary attrition takes at least half of the class and 2) most promotions are still evaluated on an absolute basis (eg it’s less “we promote one from each class” and more “we have a high bar / specific threshold for promoting beyond associate”
Stress is high, but at the associate level it’s the type of stress you’re used to (cranking on an IC deck and cranking on a steerco deck are pretty similar). At a more senior level, there is much more career risk as you approach signing / closing.
Ability to unplug has been essentially zero at both firms I’ve worked for. This is far and away the most taxing part of the job
