PwC Public Sector Advisory

Anyone have experience with / knowledge of the PSP? Would be interested in hearing opinions of the practice, mobility within the firm (they basically told me no problem if I'm interested in commercial - that I could either switch completely after a year or so or straddle projects on both sides, etc. - is this true?) They made it seem like it's all about just getting into the firm and then it's up to me what I want to do....

thanks!

It should be pretty easy to switch to commercial so long as you are in the right vertical. Commercial side has three verticals: management, risk, and technology. Switching between the verticals will take a bit of networking though.

 

Thanks. So they told me the majority of what their account does within PSP is "strategy"....would that align with the commercial management vertical? I'm so skeptical because I've never heard of a firm offering that kind of mobility, so it seemed like maybe they were only saying that to get me to join...
