How are you dealing with being severely understaffed? I have no associates or seniors and just have been stuck playing all rolls. I feel broken and defeated and just have nothing left to give.

We’re mainly consulting so not much can really be sent overseas as it’s not repetitive work. Partners are in the process of putting out recs, just in my office we are currently 4 directors, 5 managers 2 seniors 3 associates... the turnover has killed us

PwC 1 sadly we’re a specialized group so we don’t often have the ability to pull from other areas, everytime I reach out to our deployment team I don’t even receive a response even with a partner cc’d

If nothing has been possible that’s a shame. Why aren’t the partners doing anything about it

Offshore resources?

Good luck! Hope things turn around soon then

Thanks! Just counting down the minutes until we get some new hires

Manager OP look at Glass Door for new opportunities. Really it’s just a job. If it’s causing you so much stress take control and look outside for something more fulfilling.

I've heard a couple of things about how the partner pension amount @ PwC is determined, both similar in approach.

Both calculations I have heard of result in an annuity paid until death, at which point a surviving spouse (if any) receives the annuity.

The first calculation I have heard is that you get 80% of your highest earning year as a partner (e.g. If your best year was $1M, you'd get $800k as an annuity).

The second calculation I have heard is that they look at your three highest earning years as a partner, and take the second highest and you get 100% of that. (e.g if your three highest earning years were $1M, $800k, and $1.2M, you'd receive $1M as an annuity).

Is ANY of this true, or just all rumor? Any PwC partners that can chime in and explain the pension plan fact for fact? Perhaps with sample numbers?

My sister and I have recently both come to the realization that our parents guilt us into spending time with them or visiting them and the guilt causes us both to shut down.

We’ve both noticed this shift in our relationship with our parents after graduating from college and starting our own adult lives. Continued
