PwC reviews

I have worked in PwC Kolkata , Advisory SBU. This was not even close to what I have expected working in a so called Big4 firm. If you are a software developer, who plans to join here , please think twice before joining. As a software developer you get to: 1. work as if there is no tomorrow. which basically means work would be assigned to you along with deadlines that you have to work 28 hours a day to meet. 2. witness what is called a panic situation, almost throughout the year 3. forget that you have a family 4. understand that if you cannot speak very good bengali (with your bosses) , you are a worthless fool.

This workplace is one of the most awful, toxic, environments I've encountered, and it's rife with ageism. Their motto revolves around "building relationships," essentially meaning you're expected to cozy up to countless partners just to get noticed – an impossible feat considering most are solely focused on only accepting others who can help advance their own careers. Despite being praised all year and receiving positive quarterly reviews from other managers, they blindside you during performance evaluations, making baseless accusations you've never even heard of. If everyone values your work, how does a negative review make sense? Their EOY roundtables are a joke and seem like only their "favorites" get the good ratings and recognition. It's all about popularity and playing by their rules, rules most of us aren't privy to. We're just hardworking individuals looking for recognition. Honestly, I cannot recommend this place. There are just too many toxic personalities lurking about, and it's high time they're called out.
