Interview question prep!

Context:
Have interview with pwc for a similar role what I am working right now, a little senior level but great compensation compared to my current.

Question:
Why do you want to come to pwc when you are already in consulting at another Big4 firm?

Note:
I know many folks here would have gone through such prep while switching, just wanted to gather thoughts to answer this and crack the interview.

TIA

I've never jumped big 4, but being a PwC'er, here's a couple points you can talk to of why you "truly"believe PwC is a place you'd rather be:

-First of the big 4 to do a drastic firm reorg (no more audit, tax consulting; just trust and consulting now)... Bold strategies equal probable future career growth opportunity!

-Aquired EagleDream cloud consulting, and aim to grow it by 20+% CAGR (if you're into cloud)

-Developing many xLOS ESG initiatives to help companies with ESG strategies and reporting.

-Our leadership (CEO) was recently the highest rated of big3 CEO's, and is not afraid to speak out about social justice issues, and often leads conversations about diversity and inclusion with other CEO's.

Hope this helps.
