How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance). Job 2: role is okay but higher level and great benefits (16 weeks paternity, 0% coinsurance, 5 more days of vacation). Total comp is the same though. I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?

In audit room busy season love stories?

Anyone in EY FIDS? What is your day to day like? What big cities are you in?

Just started at the firm a month and half ago and snapshots are already happening soon. How important are they? I’ve had pretty low utilization, so I’m kinda nervous as an experienced hire

If you don't log in to work hungover Monday morning, you haven't fully utilized your weekend. Change my mind.

Anyone experienced lack of motivation in your last two weeks? I want to leave Deloitte in good terms but can’t focus.

What's the most you've ever paid for a single drink?

You did an interview and your interviewer apologized that the travel time 180minutes was much higher than 30minutes scheduled time for the interview and that It could have been done remotely, but she has to follow the process. I am still waiting for feedback though.

Helloooooo PwC BS

Status of external hiring freeze for IFS? Still in place?

Hi Fellow Fish,
Have a friend applying as an Experienced Hire (10+ direct experience) for a Sr Mgr Ext Comms job. Tier 1 city. Any idea of compensation range? Other things to know? Thanks!

How’s everyone feeling about the ITSCo move? Anyone excited? I’m on the fence with it. But since I’m new to the firm, I have to wait a year before deciding to make a move if I didn’t like it

Trying to get a sense of what all IFS groups there are. Please share your group name in the comments. If your group name is already posted in the comments, +1 it

Which are the highest paid IFS functions?

Been silent on this topic for several months. Got screwed over on my MD case by Advisory. Unofficial, off the record sounding by Katie F. So much for PwC process.
Such is TOXIC environment. #Advisorytargeting& bullying at the top of the house.

Does PwC IFS has SM1 and SM2 levels or it is just SM. Recruiter told me he never heard levels/tiers with in a position (Senior Manager)

In general I am proud to work at PwC and with Leadership. But every now and then there is a big miss or blind spots Looking at recent Leadership changes one has to wonder how a first year partner ends up running Strategy, Mkting and Comm's for a 9B firm?

How to go from Advisory to IFS? Should I do a tour of duty? Particularly interested in HR

Does anyone else feel like instead of reviewing all the increased work we’ve been doing and releveling accordingly, the firm is just rewriting our current job scope to include the increased work?

How are IFS bonus and raises this year?

Hi,
Can someone help me and DM me with the contact info (email) for the HR personal who handles FS advisory Insurance? She did my exit interview when I was at PwC. I think it’s Michelle but I’m having amnesia today.
I had her contact but seem to have misplaced it.

Hello PwC IFS bowl 👋🏽

Are there any BS areas that are getting bonuses?

I was promoted to manager in Jan but received an offer with a 35% salary increase and much cheaper health insurance outside the firm. I am 85% sure I’ll take the offer, but wanted to see if anyone could think of acting I may be missing out on by leaving? FYI my inflation increase was larger than my promotion increase and my student loan payments also were stopped since I’m no longer an SA. I think what is holding me back is my guilt for my immediate team but just want to check.

Is the Products and Technology group internal? Any insight on what that group does or where life is like inside it?

What is campus recruiter salary for SA and Manager in T1 city?

Is IFS getting bonus /raise numbers a full week after practice? Is that fair???

Anyone in AWM/PE? Would love to chat about your day-to-day and how the teams are structured!
