New hire at PwC Strategy& here. I just received notification that my computer was shipped. Does PwC ship computer accessories (keyboard, mouse) and monitor or do I need to purchase those on my own? Thanks!

No. You can’t charge to a client.

There’s a technology peripherals site where I ordered a portable monitor for free. Not sure if they do that anymore but if you go into your local office I think they have a ton of extra mouses and keyboards there that IT just gives away

If I remember correctly and might’ve been different by office but those used to only be the wired ones. For the wireless keyboards and mouses, you had to order them through the site.

U can order a portable monitor. It's back available as of Friday

Just laptop and two charger

No. But you’ll get an extra $250 in your paycheck to purchase these things.

I’m not at the firm anymore and was in tax but can you not order keyboards / mouses / portable screens via IT anymore? Those used to be free. Idk about external monitors though.

Most likely will be given to you. However I believe you can check what’s in your Order because they probably sent you a conformation email for your order.

I’m a new hire at PwC Advisory. My laptop just arrived and it’s just the laptop and 2 chargers

Damn they don’t give y’all screens or key boards?

I mean that’s good enough I guess. You could charge it to the client to if it’s in your policy

How do you function as an adult without owning a computer mouse keyboard or monitor 😅. Maybe I’m just a nerd

Good question! My previous firm gave me wireless keyboard, a mouse and monitor so I never had to buy them!

What do you need a mouse for. I’ve never used one since starting in 2017 lol.

It’s not though, I can work in excel or ppt faster than any of my peers without a mouse. Just takes a bit to get used to.

At what point do you draw the line on WLB? Working insane hours on a long/term project with what feels like no end in sight. It’s not sustainable but clearly expected. Could you get fired for drawing lines in the sand and saying (example) “come 8:30 every night I’m logging off”. That’s a 65 hour work week as-is but I currently am up until midnight working consistently. For context I’ve been rated as a strong performer consistently and am not new to the job so it’s not a lack of understanding.
