Employee Reviews
- “There are high expectations, but everyone is very focused on growth and improvement and wants to uplift those around them. That is built into the culture from Partner level and down and is made very clear to new joiners and junior talent.”
- “Employee centric. PwC is a partnership and thus employee-owned by senior management. Career progression past middle management is partner. Unlike traditional corporations where senior positions are limited, you are valued based on the contributions to the firm and can contribute to the firm's success and create the need for additional partners. Thus, instead of filling a partner position you can create the need for one for yourself.”
- “I started with no consulting experience and had a government defense contracting job which was the total opposite of PwC. My first project was high visibility, high prestige, and very fast paced which made me grow and make a ton of mistakes. Now, my other projects are not so bad because I taught myself how to keep my head above water.”
- “It does not in any way feel like a corporate outfit - while the firm is world-class, I do not get the feeling of stuffy suit-and-tie attitudes. We are more than employees - we are people, with families and hobbies as well as careers, and we have voices which can be heard and ideas which can be seen and impacts which can be felt, both within and without. I truly feel like I am part of something bigger which is making a positive change in the world.”
- “PwC's culture is unmatched. Everyone is welcoming, kind, extremely smart, and willing to lend a helping hand. I feel comfortable with everyone I've met at the company and I know that I've made friends for life from this firm. Each and every person at the firm has taught me something. They come from all parts of the world, with all different interests, degrees, specialities, and perspectives. They always say the best way to improve is to surround yourself with people smarter than you and I have successfully done that working at PwC.”

Getting Hired Here
- “Candidates will go through a series of interviews starting with HR, then progressing to current employees of firms. The ideal candidate has the appropriate skills and experience for the role and can share specific examples that demonstrate their competency. They should think critically, understand our business, and communicate effectively.”
- “Hiring process was extremely slow, it took months to get the interviews and being communicated if the process still in progress, and even after that to get the offer letter took longer than I could expect or based on my previous experiences. The feedback was not received in an appropriate time.”
- “In my opinion the Recruiters does an exceptional job of follow up within a timely fashion. We realize it's a competitive market so you must move right away. The ideal candidate has previous consulting and M&A experience for the practice I support.”
- “[Company is seeking] Someone that is themselves and hardworking, the firm is big in diversity so if you bring your true self and show to be honest, kind, caring, driven then that is someone I believe the firm will hire.”
- “The interview and onboarding process was straight forward. One recruiter is assigned as your main contact and they regularly reached out via e-mail and phone. When they said it would be 3 days to know results of first round of interviews, they reached out on day 3 with feedback and next steps. It was about a 3 week process of screening tests and 2 rounds of interviews. Once the offer came, it was about 10 weeks until start date, which worked out well for me. The onboarding process before start date takes time, so the time was used to complete the independence review and background checks, which is a regulatory requirement of all audit firms and the reason for the gap between job offer and start date.”
