How is PwC’s reputation in the region?

The level of talent is significantly lower as B4s in general raced to the bottom in terms of fees. Holds true for all B4s, with a slight lead to deloitte and pwc as they still have some decent specialized practices. Solely my opinion.

In the region, MBB, OW, ATK, and (strangely enough) Booz Allen considered top tier and B4 are definitely considered on the bottom.

Depends for what type of service. Consulting apart from Deals sucks. S& is completely disasociated from pwc

What makes them suck for the most part? Is this same impression for the big 4?

One could argue they are in a different line of business. Also the wbl and salaries are vastly different. At B4, you're home by 6pm. At other firms, you're a slave.

Interesting. Can you comment on ADL’s culture?
