I will be joining PWC AC Bangalore in couple of weeks for SAP tech stack.
I am joining from a product based company. So wanted to know how we are assigned to projects. Will there be any client interviews. If yes will it be very tough? Do we get a say in the projects we can get to work or its usually assigned and we have to take it up.

Thank You.

Currently at Deloitte and considering leaving. Is it worth jumping from one Big4 to another? Seems like getting into Industry is not working out.

We have been utilizing a third party asset manager. We have grown to the point where we just don’t think it makes financial sense to continue to do that and need to bring the portfolio management in-house. Have a few questions for the group:
How many models do you run?
How much time do you devote to this weekly?
What advice would you give to someone who has had total reliance on TAMPs but making a complete change to investment management style?

So would you say Andy from Shawshank redemption was a Banker? Seems to me that the service he provided was more of a CPA.

Any thoughts around how to use M&A tax skills for the better good? I’m a CPA and originally got into this for a stable / interesting job, but in the long-term I’d like to do something that either influences drafting of tax legislation or helps the public (however naive that may sound). Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?

Hi All

From last 40-50 day's; I get call from HR ...
.they asked whether they can schedule interview on Wednesday....i said Yes.

But somehow I get schedule cancellation e-mail on or before Tuesday & the process continues from last 1.5 months

Will i get interviewed @accenture or not....

Hi all,
I got offer from Accenture. I am having 2 years of experience in TCS as java developer.
Please comment work life balance in Accenture.

My status at Accenture portal is Offer accepted.
When it will change to 'Hired' ?

It is in appropriate to ask what the compensation for a position is after a first interview if they want you to go on three more and the interviewers on my first told me that was above their pay grade to tell me?????

Seems kind of ridiculous for a business to want to waste so much time to find out after a handful of interviews that the pay isnt aligned with my needs ......

I can see in biglaw not bringing up knowing damn well if you get an offer itll likely be high, but this is a midsize

Restructuring/Bankruptcy associates, how slow have you been this year so far? Seems like industry wide it’s been a very quiet year.

I’m currently in the process of being converted from contractor to permanent. In my initial conversations I was under the impression that I was in a different pay grade and asked for a salary 25k higher than the max allotted for my position. I feel like it gave the impression that I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestion how I can recover from this?
