I’m a partner and curious as to what my typical day is supposed to look like

likefunny

We get a salary?

Same.

Sounds about right.

The day is all about helping your teams get what they need to succeed. Happy teams = happy clients = more SOWs. The job is mostly about people and relationships. Selling comes naturally through those interactions

Hi all,

I have cleared all the interviews for Walmart and salary negotiations are also done.

Am I getting rejected or is it normal to be on hold without any update for a month at this stage?

I've heard a couple of things about how the partner pension amount @ PwC is determined, both similar in approach.

Both calculations I have heard of result in an annuity paid until death, at which point a surviving spouse (if any) receives the annuity.

The first calculation I have heard is that you get 80% of your highest earning year as a partner (e.g. If your best year was $1M, you'd get $800k as an annuity).

The second calculation I have heard is that they look at your three highest earning years as a partner, and take the second highest and you get 100% of that. (e.g if your three highest earning years were $1M, $800k, and $1.2M, you'd receive $1M as an annuity).

Is ANY of this true, or just all rumor? Any PwC partners that can chime in and explain the pension plan fact for fact? Perhaps with sample numbers?
