Depends on group completely. I’ve seen both but also comes down to boundaries. Don’t start by volunteering for everything under the sun. Stay targeted and don’t over promise.

One thing about Big 4, don't expect WLB from them. It's upto us, how we communicate things to our supervisor..
I am also moving from Ey to pwc now..just made my mind that I will be getting more salary for the same work and pwc is also a bigg organization..if I see some great Work life fit then it's good otherwise I am getting more salary

Hi Fishes,

I got an offer from PwC. The joining date that I had agreed from my side was 2 June. But I don't know that even in probation the NP is 90 days (it was mentioned in the release doc as 1 month but I didn't take that screenshot as proof). I told the whole issue to my recruiter and she sent a confirmation mail stating that she will revise my joining date by 90 days without issue. Is there any chance they can revoke the offer? I have put down my papers already.
