It’s been pretty quiet internally. I don’t think it was ever really officially announced, and there hasn’t been all that much chatter amongst staff.

Also, important to note it’s not “per diem” in the true sense. It’s use it or lose it … nothing unused ends up in our pockets at the end of the day. Actual expenses. It’s a pretty generous bump though, we were at $75 or $100 per day, depending on if a HCOL city or not.

As a general rule of thumb, Per Diem should equate to about 100 Taco Bell soft tacos (pre-tax), so it sounds like PwC is a bit under market but overall it is a welcomed change and a step towards once again tracking the Soft Taco

It sounds like they should go on strike. Let's be honest, its 2022, I get that they don't want to splurge on quesadillas, but the least they could do is fork up the money for doritos locos.

Ok only for travel right.

Hope others follow.

Do you need to expense/justify items then if it's on actuals?

It’ll populate in Concur. You’ll need to flag it as an individual travel meal if it’s not done automatically. And you’ll need to submit the expense report with it on it. Not much else beyond that.

The IRS I’m sure has something to say…

If only PwC had anybody who knew about the tax code
