The people at PwC are the best colleagues I’ve had in my 20 year career.
Again, PwC.
I’d say honestly interview and feel out the leadership. I interviewed at PwC for the free trip to New York but fell in love with the interviewers. Unfortunately they underestimated headcount and I didn’t get the offer but I would’ve gone there over Deloitte. People make all the difference
PwC.
If $$ is what you are looking for - the firm you go to doesn’t matter within B4 . Everyone will pay well for lateral jumps .
OP - again doesn’t matter if it’s a lateral jump you will make . Where the model breaks is if you want to make partner . If that’s the end goal - stop jumping at SM level and build your network
Agree with D1. Firm-wide comparisons are useless. I could have gone to either PwC or D. In the end the people I would have worked with at D were very arrogant and bro while the people I work with at PwC are great. It would be an error to extrapolate my experience to the larger firms.
So I don’t mean culture at work. I mean it as what looks better on a resume? What opens more doors for me in the future to go to another B4 or industry?
To emphasize the second part of my question, what’s the difficulty in switching between B4’s when you already have one B4 on your resume? Is it a done deal? Does it have any effect (I’m sure it has to have some kind of positive effect)?
I’m sure it’s a huge help. Bringing an experienced hire from industry is always a risk. Knowing they’re already doing the work is a huge +.
Who will open more doors for you? Which doors exactly - the doors at the 2 of the big4 you haven’t worked for? Go work with the people you like more, who knows, maybe you’ll stay.
Mostly to exit to industry. I love the team I work with now, but I’m making 50% (relative to those in the high CoL city) of the salary I should be making and am about to move to a high CoL city. (Moving from no state tax to v high state tax). No way theyd make up the difference in the next raise period. I get along with everyone I work with, even back when I was a server I was sad to go bc I had such a good time with me coworkers. But I’ll always have fun with my coworkers, I won’t always have a good salary.
Firmwide comparisons are like fraternity/sorority comparisons - it’s your experience that matters, no one else really cares. Also spoiler alert - it’s all subjective bs.
What kind of work do you do? For Audit, Tax and Assurance, PwC is really good.
For technology work, PwC is near the bottom.
It all depends on what you want to do.
Funnily enough in the part of Cyber I’m in, PwC is kicking D’s ass
