PwC Deals has been having a really bad habit of just saying “come join the deals team” without telling people which one it is. Ask them specifically what the team WITHIN deals is called

Do check whether the role is for the DDV team or the PEVC team.
The PEVC team sits under strategy& and does IT DD and Tech DD kind of work (specifically related to IT)

From pay and type of work perspective, PEVC team is much better than DDV
Plus, in PEVC team you can potentially do ODD, value creation and some CDD projects as well

What’s your M&A IT experience like? I’ve done several M&As but programme delivery on the IT side of the organisation (data migrations/stack selection etc). Curious whether that’s relevant experience.

Yep, that sounds just like my experience. I’ve mostly worked in PMO and IMO more recently.

Dude Deloitte >> DDV only consider if S& or PEVC

I’m not sure why but people who lie so easily terrify me. It sounds hyperbolic but I feel like they could kill me. Maybe it’s because I’m so easily burdened with guilt and struggle with being dishonest. Part of me is also envious.
