Date: August 3rd, 2024 10:20 AM Author: saffron elastic band Because consulting is Beneath Law but Above Accountancy. Of course pwc would want to add a consulting practice. It would only diminish a big law firm’s prestige imho (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5569168&forum_id=2Reputation#47923992) |

You've also explicitly stated your intention in other threads. Your response in this thread is also wrong. Your idiocy pairs perfectly with "sustainability."

Date: August 3rd, 2024 11:59 AM Author: Pontificating aphrodisiac senate You can't lock threads on autoadmit. Autoadmit is here to relentlessly remind you that pursuing law, especially fake "LLM" law and "sustainability," is a wrong move you will regret. You clearly do not have a knack for law, as evidenced by your fundamental misunderstanding of the laws that regulate the practice of law. Find a new hobby, champ.

Date: August 3rd, 2024 12:03 PM Author: hot thirsty death wish cruise ship It's a cycle. They start up consulting arms. Then those consulting arms get too intertwined where the auditor is willing to overlook accounting malfeasance if they get enough consulting business. They the government makes them separate. And then a few years later, rinse and repeat.
Cap Gemini was spun off from EY as Cap Gemini Ernst & Young like 25 years ago because regulators asked to separate. And then a few years later, I guess EY started up another consulting unit.
Accenture was born out of the Arthur Anderson implosion. Though I don't know if Accenture does audit today. |

there's a whole wide range of white-collar professional services in M&A etc where it's sort of interchangeable who does it (accountant vs lawyer vs consultant vs financial analyst). |
