PwC, how are the Delivering Deals Value (DDV) group hours? Is it worth it over other MC roles? How are the exit opportunities? (I’m coming out of UG) I’ve never really been a finance guy, so I wonder if the role with kind of pidgin mentor this kind of work. What are your overall thoughts on the DDV group?

Depends on the project. I’ve been on diligences that are 65 hour weeks for less than a month, longer TMO/PMO projects that hover around 50 hours for a few months, and a strategy type project where I was consistently hitting 75-80 hour weeks for 3.5 months. The thing no one in the recruiting process will tell you is we do a bunch of PMO, and they’re mind numbingly boring and don’t lend themselves well to exit opps. Apparently we’re also paid under market compared to other B4 deals groups.

I’m currently in the process of being converted from contractor to permanent. In my initial conversations I was under the impression that I was in a different pay grade and asked for a salary 25k higher than the max allotted for my position. I feel like it gave the impression that I don’t know what I’m doing. Any suggestion how I can recover from this?

I’ve worked in sales for 12 years (8 years retail sales and management, 4 years inside tech sales and management). I’m feeling the burn and looking for something else in the tech field.

I’m pretty good at Salesforce and have thought about a SFDC admin type role, but that’s all I’ve thought of so far.

Recently started my own firm and interested in others thoughts. Are there resources out there for practical advice or is it only something that comes with experience?

But if a client asks me is it better to marry my fiance in her home country, bring her here on a K-1 or have her visit on a B-2, that's not learned from a book or webinar. How does one learn how to evaluate new cases?
