No firm is objectively better. Your experience in B4 is determined 95% by your teams and clients. If the clients are horrible, the teams are bitter, and it will suck.

PwC has its issues but honestly everyone I've worked with has been really nice, helpful, and overall I like the culture. Not to say I haven't had some things where I'm like wtf, but there are always going to be office politics and people are human. This environment is way better than my last job and client.

Kool-aid, yes. But me, as a mid tier outsider, would like to know what people's thoughts are on this topic...

PwC 2, preach.

I chose pwc cause it had the best people. Can't compare to the others, but I would say the culture is toxic and prettyyyyyy awful. I'm sure the other firms are bad too but pwc has to be one of the top

Comparing cultures among B4 is kind of pointless IMO. And for the record, compensation (a la PwC manager bonus) is NOT part of culture. Compensation and benefits should be considered separately from culture.

100% agree. EY's culture is horrible

I was at PwC and culture sucked. Overworked and underpaid, even moreso than you'd expect for Big4. Not to mention the recruiters lied to me about amount of travel and contribution bonus eligibility and amount.

Mental Health, inherited or choice? I am finding myself struggling with processing that ADD, Depression, or Bipolar is a chemical imbalance in the brain vs. behavioral therapy. The best analogy given to me is you would treat diabetics with insulin so why not consider prescriptions to help mental health. 2020 has thrown more at me than I’m able to handle. Has anyone here noticed a significant improvement after a prescription to help psych issues?
