For PwC fishes who left recently, how did you consolidate wealth builder into 401k within benefits express to avoid the 20% federal tax withholding that was described in the benefits package? I tried to do this online but it didn’t show as an option except to rollover to an existing IRA or take a final distribution. Do I need to call benefits express?

Depends on location and business unit. Clarify your questions.
^^What area?
Second year bump at most places is a joke... if you are getting a pretty nice bump second year, it's bc there is a market adjustment embedded into your raise and your office was lagging. I got an 8% raise, (every 1 year gets rated the same) but the new hires received much higher starting salaries than my class did, so our "effective" salary increase was really 1.2% difference compared to new hire.
Detroit area - tax
I was 65.2k, but I'm sure it's higher now
Southern California
^ Tax right ? 2nd years I've talked to are at 62k at Deloitte audit.
Yes, in tax
62k seems hi for second years in the Midwest. Probably upper 50's depending on performance etc.
55-58 in Detroit
@deloitte2 that is less than ideal. Not sure if that's consistent across other firms, but was not my experience going from a first to second year.
@pwc1 what city you are in and what was your % raise
Detroit, 8%. But in my experience the % differs too much year to year to be useful. I would say my estimate above is pretty reasonable regardless of los.
