PwC Senior Associate reviews

- Work life balance - Not willing to experiment by attempting different approaches - Salary range is low. This was one of the primary reasons for my exit from PwC. - Very poor immigration policy (green card and H1 policy) - Every year the organization spends millions of dollars in the name of advisory university to train their employees. But the course work at this week long camp is outdated. The courses offered need to be improved based on the latest market trends. - The performance appraisal process remains confusing to date. For a year, I had 4 performance reviews - 3 of them had exceeds expectations while one had met expectations. My salary raise and bonus however did not happen as expected. My partner indicated that I was on the "cusp" with many others and hampered my chances to get a good raise/bonus.

1) There's only 1 review cycle. If you missed the cut, you'll have to work another year off whilst your batch mates cruise along with a minimum 25% increment in pay level. 2) Its still a business, if their fees get cut, the budgets get cut, and the staffs' life gets cut by having to work more with less hours allowed to be clocked in. 3) Slow in revising the pay levels 4) No support during peak period and lack of staff 5) Being one of the Big 4s that emphasises more on audit quality means we have do comparatively more work for what was claimed industrial level pay
