Promotion Watch ’22: The Queen’s PwC Adds 22 to the Partnership

Posted on by Jason Bramwell

PwC UK recently took out an ad in The Times to congratulate its newest class of PwCers who earned their stripes at the midway point of the firm’s financial year.

The ad says:

On 1 January we are promoting 22 new partners as part of our ongoing investment in our business. We wish them the greatest success as they make a difference both to our clients and our firm. The role of leaders has never been more important as we address the breadth and complexity of challenges facing organisations and society. These new partners bring diverse experience and expertise to our partnership, helping our clients to build trust, deliver sustained outcomes and solve their most important problems.

Of the 22 new equity partners, 41% are women and 14% are from a minority ethnic background, according to PwC. During last July’s partner promotions, 41% of the 63 new partners were women and 13% were minorities.

Here are the 22 newest partners at PwC UK:

  • Lisa Bark
  • Vicky Bradford
  • Dan Bunyan
  • Richard Crofton
  • Alexis Gish
  • Jamie Grigg
  • Rachael Hampton

Apparently a Few People at PwC Are Feeling Shortchanged

The PricewaterhouseCoopers compensation post is still a hot thread, as the majority of news was about double-digit raises and bonuses have been reported from many although at least one commenter was skeptical that all the news was good in the PwC world:

“[P]robably the people most willing to share are the ones who got the most $.”


That comment was in response to someone who assumed PwC was throwing around “1” ratings (the firm’s highest) like boomies at a Phish show. Of course, not everyone can be so lucky and apparently there are a couple of terms being thrown around by the less fortunate.

Late last week a source close to PwC dropped us the following:

“Fonus”– noun; the much-diminished bonus Big 4 firms give to borderline staff they can’t afford to pay properly, but don’t want to quit.

Not to be confused with the ‘nonus,’ which is no bonus at all.

Apparently these terms have emerged this week as fonuses started appearing in people’s paychecks.

So not to worry “as expected” staff that can’t afford to quit your jobs! If you ended up with the 6%/0% instead of the 14%/10% or whatever, whathaveyou, you’re not alone! Plus, there are some fun terms you can throw around to help you bitch about it. Continue to discuss and keep us updated with any other fallout from the discussions – verbal creativeness or otherwise.
