A1 you think PWC is a coveted role ? Maybe it depends on what you're doing there I dunno. When I worked there I found it was just about same as anywhere else : 20% of the people did all the work while the rest talked about it and ate free lunches and whatnot
OP, what your team member did was dumb. But at least they"re new and will learn. I assume you"re at least a manager or above. You should know better than to call a teammate out on FB for a very specific situation. To me, that's the real fireable offense. Grow up, OP. You should be the one who knows better. Oh, and writing "Don't worry I changed their gender and the booking site" makes me really question YOUR intelligence not theirs.
So you flip the gender, then admit you flipped it. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of flipping it? 🤔
And so you call them out on fishbowl?
wow! No offense but to get into pwc, don't you have to have a working brain? These are coveted roles, sure they learned during training. I would say goodbye
Ya agree with @PwC3... pretty sure Expedia rates are on par if not better than our corp rate. No way it's 40% higher... something fishy to this post
@D1, I flipped the genders and travel site around to make it a little less obvious
Not surprised, some of these kids literally have no common sense. But they're kids.
Well P3, OP, I'm a manager, but I always try to think of how I would have felt as an associate. I'm sure that I would already be embarrassed having made that mistake, but then to read that my manager/director was publicly shaming the incident would have made me feel much worse and I just don't think it's necessary / appropriate. If I'm the one who is out of touch, I'm sure FB will let me know
Not sure how it's possible to disagree so strongly with P6... I really fear for the future of humanity
Not saying it wasn't VERY stupid, I just think it's better handled in house vs pointlessly venting on social media. What good will come out of it? Stylistic preference I guess.
I think that's a fire-able offense. What were the repercussions OP?
I would shit can him immediately, if he can't follow the simplest of rules out you go
The agreements with the travel agencies, airlines and hotels are really not that price advantageous. Most of the benefit to the consulting firms comes from from year end volume kickbacks so it's odd that there's such a huge difference. I would check the meals and entertainment as well That's where I've seen some kids go to town and then claim ignorance. Also, taking business and first when only coach allowed...
Pwc 6: not how it works. Not how it works AT ALL. You don't get to mess up expenses like that and get away with it. Everyone uses their respective travel site because we're told that during orientation. If not, all of your colleagues probably discuss the travel site once or twice. You legitimately CANNOT claim ignorance on this. You deserve to have your face blasted in a company wide email if you do something like this. I'm a new analyst btw
You guys have to track your teams' expenses??? Oh wow, that sucks.
OP you are a jerk for calling out your team member on a public forum. Shame on you
Man oh man are a lot of you soft
Seriously, why are so many people here coddling stupidity
Wow
