      Yes, your company is the worst shit hole in the corporation's world. I worked for you in 2018 and was bullied and discriminated for my religious beliefs. Shame on PWC AND PORTICO who hires racist/bully managers. No disciplinary action taken and no compensation for the harassment inflicted. 🤮

      Depends on the client! Most of the time there is an intro call to present myself, and most clients are nice (with exceptions like usual)

      Hey @Akshay! PwC has a program for country and office transfers! You can always ask for a transfer after you've worked with them a little bit, many people have done it so I believe you can too!
