PwC just finished my final interview with pwc audit and it sounds like the partner was pitching why i should join over asking questions about me.

assuming i get the job (s1), he made it seem like everything is done for us with the AC and COE, if this is true, what do we do as seniors? project management? sorry but this seems kinda too good to be true since rn at kpmg there's always a lot on my plate so i wanted to see what y'all really do as seniors

The AC and COE are useless but you can easily delegate the management of those teams to your A2s

Partners think the AC and COE do everything. Yes, you will do a lot of project management of those teams plus the onshore team but also well over 50% of audit work still needs doing by you and the associates.

KPMG to PwC here too, the answer is it is true. A Senior at PwC acts like a manager at KPMG.

Mostly project management and more complex testing or picking up the slack if AC, COE and staff are shit, going through approaches/controls.

Hello folks,

Just landed as a PR in Canada a month back.
Been interviewing for front end dev - 5YOE. Had been with Deloitte USI as a Consultant back in India. Applying for big 4's and tech firms but seems like they have been taking forever to review the applications (2-3 weeks now for few since applied!)

Have one offer from CGI as Sr.Con for 105k. Does anyone know how good/not good is CGI in terms of work, culture, WLB, perks?

Would appreciate any help in getting referred as well! Thank you
