Not EY lol

PwC was pretty understanding and paid for my tests. Granted, that was 10 years ago so not sure how it is now

I think it’s hard to list any firm like this. Maybe you can check glassdoor and indeed for overall work culture reviews.

I'm SVP/strategy for a PR agency. I moved into PR, Healthcare, and Strategic Planning only 3 years ago. An agency recruiter is trying to convince me to move into a GSVP account role, assuring me "at that level it's all strategy." (I dont think she understands the words she's using. Or that I'm qualified). But long-term, knowing account roles are so much more plentiful than brand planning in PR, I'm wondering if I should start thinking about account. Anyone here moved from strategy to account?
