The work culture at PwC is absolutely phenomenal. What I really appreciate is the emphasis on fostering a collaborative environment where everyone's ideas are valued. It's truly inspiring to witness the innovative thinking and creative approaches that each individual brings to their projects. The level of dedication and passion for finding unique solutions is truly commendable. It's definitely a place where you can grow both personally and professionally.

Everything is perfect and it feels like it suits me perfectly!
Advice
I would like to advise people that one should try to explore fields which they were interested in before but never got the opportunity. Opportunities are always available, we just need to pick the right one at the right time!

Remote Extern
July - September 2023 • Dayton, NJ
What I liked
I liked how I got assigned important consulting tasks (market research, trends analysis) that were instrumental in creating a presentation for actual clients at a nonprofit organization.
What I wish was different
I hoped there would be more data analysis at this particular nonprofit consulting externship.

Time management is the most important factor when doing a remote externship and balancing the required work with other academic responsibilities.

I enjoyed the team I had the privilege of working with and create meaningful relationships with. Everyone was always willing to help and contribute to my learning.
What I wish was different
More exposure to different teams and areas of the firm.

Always put yourself out there and network with others! You never know who can help you out one day. Accounting is a small world, you are bound to run into a connection sooner than later, so make the most out of it!

External Audit Intern
June - August 2022 • Dallas, TX
What I liked
I loved the hands-on experience and being on an engagement team over the summer. I had lots of fun with my intern group as well, and I can't wait to be back again in the spring. I went with the hybrid model, and we could decide when and if we wanted to work at the office.
What I wish was different
I wish my team went into the office more because only the associate would go in once or twice per week. Another thing I wish was more in-person events for interns to interact more besides the first week of foundations training.
Advice
I would say be as positive and proactive as you can and be happy to be there to work and learn!

What I liked
I really enjoyed the net work that I built and the technical skills I learned in tableau
What I wish was different
I wish the on boarding process was less problematic. Pwc did lose my applications early on, and I was forced to contact a recruiter to get them resubmitted, which was very stressful.

I would say, ask a lot of questions on the job and be prepared to take everything. Also, networking is key.

Cloud Innovation and Engineering Intern
June - August 2022 • New York City, NY

It was a great opportunity to get exposed to so many different types of technology work and roles. I got placed on a working team so you really felt like you were a full time employee. Everyone was extremely friendly and always willing to help me or talk about their experience.
What I wish was different
I wish it was a little longer because that would have given me more time to get comfortable and more fully integrated into the team.
Advice
Going in I thought I needed to be very knowledgeable on the skills required for the project. But this is not the case. You learn 80% of what you need on the job just by doing it.
