Who's side you're on? đ€ PwC or Deloitte?
I am going to support my friend heređ PwC
I mean in the UK I personally think PwC. PwC has been at the top of The Times top 100 grad employers for over a decade.
@@sauraodalvi2502 Yessss thanks my man
@@thewongtim Yeah! When I was in Nottingham, people would talk a lot about PwC!
@@independentconsultant In about 2 weeks I should know if i'm joining PwC-I have my online assessment centre in a few days! Really excited
Thank you so much for having me on! Hope people found this useful when choosing between Deloitte & PwC....and don't forget, choose DELOITTE hahahaha. đ
Thanks for being on the Channel Kajol! đ - Now both KPMG and PwC will put you on their blacklist đđ
I worked for Strategy& and EY-Parthenon and itâs the same thing, just different colour schemes.
You donât have to go to top schools to get into big 4 in Canada either. Here in Vancouver many of colleagues went to smaller colleges in addition to those who went to UBC and SFU. I think it comes down to how well you sell yourself, grades and your school are more of a secondary factor. In Vancouver I know PwC has recruitment events at schools like Douglas college and Langara.
My school has good relationships with Deloitte and a lot of my schoolmates end up going there, especially on the audit side. When we need alumni referrals they are always eager to help. That's how I got in as well - offer on the way!
Deloitte and PwC will be similar, honestly. The difference is on departments, specific partners, clients and team.
Main difference i would name is Deloitte is less audit focus, at least in my country, and has a bigger consulting footprint. Deloitte tend to have a bigger tech structure, but depends on countries, nearshore and available hubs.
So it all falls to: country, department, and team.
All b4 are marketed as huge companies, but tend to be very locally managed, so is more a humongous group of small and middle size companies
Such an informative video! I remember sitting through the interview process for Deloitte USI a few months ago, and that was four solid long-drawn rounds including case studies and telephone interviews. Pretty sure there would've been more had I cleared the fourth one đ
Yes! Thank you for having Kajol! She was excellent! Raza :)
What an amazing video Mahdi! I love how you orchestrated this video!!
Glad you liked the video :) He's an INSANE editor.
Thanks @Alif!! We'll have to do a collab soon as well bro!
@@KajolPhadnis right?? He is!!!
@@independentconsultant for sure my man!! :)
this dialogue format is really good!
I totally agree with her that one you have first round of interview, the process is very fast as I can tell from my experience with Deloitte Canada.
Love your channel and it gave me guidance on navigating hiring season during a pandemic. I want to let you know that your channel really helped me, and it gave important first hand experience on what life is like in consulting. Watching your journey video helped me do my own self reflection in prep for interviews. This definitely helped! I got an offer for Deloitte in their cloud practice for next year!! I have a computer science background and interned as a software developer.
Btw I assume everyone at your Montreal office at PWC has to be fluent bilingual in English and French?
I love this Q&A video btw, great perspectives.
Thank you again and stay safe!
Hey Kent! Appreciate the kind words, it truly means a lot to me đ - Yes we have to be bilingual since our clients are! Congrats on the Deloitte offer, I hope you like it!!
Congrats on your offer and if you need any help when you join - please do reach out!!
What should be ideal worktime for Sr Consultant in Deloitte .. How many works they need to work ?
Awesome video.
That PwC jersey is very nice! Where did you get it!? I'm an incoming associate and I'd love one haha
It's from the PwC soccer team! Inquire to ask if you guys have a team in your city, they should give you one too! ;)
I would go for Deloitte, as I work there, but still both are the best firm for consulting.
Each firm is great in their own way but hello fellow Deloitter! Which country? UK here.
@@KajolPhadnis Hey, totally agree with your point of view, I'm from India.
I hope you like it there!!
@@independentconsultant thank you đ
Deloitte *India
Could u tell me what does under review mean at PWC?
EY
I thought big 4 is accounting firms, and mbb is consulting?
By any chance do you know where did you get that PwC adidas shirt?
Play in the PwC soccer team and you'll get one
When will pwc reopen with permanent work from office
I have worked with Deloitte in HR and just got bored of the role as they have nothing beyond analytics and lacks scope of innovation. Other than that itâs good to hide in the big world if you want to work in a great environment doing the same task
I think HR in Deloitte is massive - there are parts that just do analytics, other parts that do organisation strategy and design, others that help to develop leadership in clients etc. Thanks for watching :)
@@KajolPhadnis thatâs right. A very large part does analytics be it India or other nations. Design and strategy happens mostly in the US or consulting, else you have to be in leadership and advisory roles. However thatâs the structure of the organization. And if you try to use your brains to give design ideas, your US clients do not like you. My experience
Could you plz make vedio regarding acca inductions ..
Do a video on work life in Canada vs UK
It's on our list!
Please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please please tell us the difference between pwc India and PWC SDC?
Thanks a lot for the great insight. I've been wondering because you said that most of the applicants have a natural science and engineering degree. I'm about to finish my degree in translation which is a lingustic major. Is it possible for people like me to apply for PwC or Deloitte?
Hey, yes! I'm at Deloitte and have seen many people who come in from linguistic majors!
@@KajolPhadnis Thank you very much Kajol! You made my day!!
Yup! It's all about how you sell your skills :) most of them are looking for soft skills which you can get from everywhere basically
@@independentconsultant Thank you for the great insight! btw, love your youtube content!
@@KajolPhadnis U got a new fan. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
Do you have to know French to work b4 in Montreal? Iâm an American grad student looking to relocate after my studies
Yes if you want to work in Montreal you need French
@@independentconsultant what if I don't know French but I'm willing to learn and take courses? Is that a possibility for hires?
Hi..I got offer from both deloitte and pwc..can anyone help me on which one to opt for?
Which one did you selected?
Go for deloitte
They are indistinguishable from one another
I made it now that ConsultingHumor commented on one of my videos. Hope it's not a fake account đ
Hi Primal Career, I study Data Science so which company is good for my career as a Data Scientist , PWC or Deloitte?
I have my MS in Data Science.. very prosperous in Deloitte!
Both are great - all depends on the culture of the firm and what you prefer!
Haha one of the best videos to date!
Having now worked at Deloitte, PwC and EY (and having little to no bias) - they're all the damn same, generally speaking. Just different colour palettes haha
I just made a video on the things that helped me get into all 3 firms and will be dropping my unique view points on the strengths/weaknesses of each! Check it out if you're interested đ
Love the color palette analogy đ
@@independentconsultant we keep it real out here my guy đ
Checking it out! What would you say the culture in each firm is?
@@KajolPhadnis Hope you enjoy it!
Itâs hard to compare cultures generally - there are teams within PwC Consulting that are brilliant culture wise and others where the toxicity is prevalent. And this is not to single out PwC because this is the case across the board. A lot of it comes down to the partners and the respective leaders in the team and these leaders vary soooo much in style from team to team.
If I had to rank PwC vs Deloitte vs EY....PwC wins the culture vote. But at the same time Iâve felt that EY & Deloitte pay more attention to perfecting project delivery + maintaining relationships with clients and this is HUGE for me personally because as much as it is grand to be enjoying yourself with your internal team, life is made so much easier when your clients are happy. You win some, you lose some :)
Managers be watching like đ€š
HAHAHAHAHA so true đ
đ
Nice
Here after getting placed in Deloitte USI, Super Excited !!
You will regret it sooner
@@srishtisharma6177 Hey, hows work life balance in Deloitte touche tomasu india llp? Is it worth joining as a Servicenow developer in there?
1:50 Well, if they do their career fairs in tops schools it's obvious that they ara more keen on those schools, it's a bias!!
Always funny listening to second year consultants talk about the game.
So true đ
MBB
I think the best consulting firm is mckinsey and the company đ
Interesting! Why do say that! đ€
Think each firm excels in different areas :)
@@independentconsultant haha I was just kidding..nobody can deny that deloitte and PwC are the best of the best on this planet...
check this CNBC video about mckinsey and company czcams.com/video/BBmmMj_maII/video.html
I worked for both and I enjoyed and learned from pwc much more, Deloitte wasn't bad either however EY sucks big time I hope they fail like Arthur Andersen
It's true that the life balance in Deloitte is not too much good? It means we don't learn accounting in a good way?
You do learn a lot in both firms, dont worry about it!
@@independentconsultant and they can arrange me the transport?
@@independentconsultant I still have two questions:
1- will we work with them at night, Saturday, Sunday, and in holidays?
2- what is the difference between consultant and accountant? And which one is better?
@@rabihsaleme6088 In consultant you have to travel a lot, if you love to travel consultant is for you otherwise go for CA
@@aritrasarkar1557 are you sure? I heard that consultant don't travel too much.
how many accountants are hired in PWC
A lot lol - more than consultants that's for sure!
Pwcđ„
Yeahhh đ
" I study physics, I am basically , I think I am an engineer" đ€
Work less, show more.
Most people whom excel at physics become engineers. In fact physics is a prerequisite in almost all fields of engineering at almost all universities with the exception of maybe software engineering. Engineers will share some of the exact same modules a strait up physicist would be taking but not always vice-versa.
Physics teaches you the principals, and then makes you apply them to a particular scenario. Instead of teaching you the answer to a scenario.
Ipso-facto, this makes physics unique and distinct in its own right.
best EY everyone know
Joined with EY recently
None can be allowed to challenge us. Am I right?
DON'T DO ACCOUNTING!
WHY?
Two types of dabba kottings. Self dabba and pakkanodi dabba.
Please who is watching this video in March 2022???
The guy is the wrong person to ask about working with the big four. He's just enjoying himself there. Imagine being in IT Consultancy Vs Management Consultancy. Management Consulting is very demanding in the big four.
The lady is just talking too much. He is defending Deloitte too much. She is the hard part about working with Deloitte.
Thanks guys for the great video
Finally the most awaited collaboration!
Both you guys have done awesome job.(đ the final conclusion)
I think now Heinrich(Firm learning) will comment saying, "McKinsey is the bestđ "
The video was super awesome!
Haha, thanks for watching Saurao - we all think our firm is the best but honestly, we tackle problems the same and produce very similar outputs as well :) What differentiates each other is obviously culture, pay etc but honestly each firm is awesome to work for. We all have different characteristics which makes us each great.
Thanks for watching Saurao!! Still waiting for Heinrich to comment... đ
@@KajolPhadnis inspiring...wow!! Hahaha
hahaha interesting
Great video. On another note, the woman really needs to brush and floss her teeth. You can literally see the cheetohs in between her teeth!!! Why!!!
