Pwc folks - what is the general perception of those who work in IFS? Have an interview with them next week but am not very sure if it’s something I’d like to do.

Depends which part. IFS is pretty broad. Some folks are great. Others less so. Not generally viewed as aggressive career-growth trajectory

Agree with P1. Great people, but it’s not advisory in any way, shape, or form

^to whom?

To everyone... unlike client-services, an IFS position needs to be available before someone is promoted into it

Thanks guys - P1 - I have an interview within their finance group.

Just wondering how the work will be different than what I do now and whether there is a clear career path for those in this group.

If you're good, you can happily rock along for many years in IFS. Just don't expect big raises or aggressive career growth. Some people can make partner via IFS but it's rare. It's support rather than revenue generating.

Which group OP? I did a tour of duty with advisory finance. From my experience the groups are great but it’s true career advancement is slower.

And usually the first the get the axe, as they are internal and not revenue generating
