How's PwC's Financial Services Advisory model risk group? Work atmosphere? Amount of travel? Pay? Did the recent layoffs hit this service line very hard?

A good amount of model validation work. The people I've met have a lot of experience and know what they're doing, so the group seems to be headed in the right direction. Work is mostly in New York. Can't comment about layoffs

You're right about the strong presence in McLean. I don't think you'd be restricted, the team is well integrated with the rest of FS at PwC so I think it would be a matter of building your network and finding the right opps that interest you. I'm not in the group but am currently working closely with them on my current engagement, so I can only provide so much knowledge. I will say that the people I've interacted with are impressive and on top of their shit

Are the validations generally focused on DFAST, CCAR or a mixture of both? Are many people based in McLean? An open position in that office caught my interest.

Op I would not suggest restricting yourself to this area. I did a model validation project and it was good. However there are a lot more interesting projects, so pidgin-holing yourself isn't a smart move.

Definitely not limiting myself to only these projects. What are some other projects that people within the model risk group may see?

Love PwC

Anyone within the model risk group have a range for SA pay?
