Tampa, circa 2015-2018, IIRC. I was on the 10th floor at 4040 Boy Scout for a couple months and it was glorious. Then we moved to the 4th floor and it was bad. They intentionally under buy office space there because they already expected the majority of their IT to work remote.

And yeah, PwC also does productive work. I have a friend who works in healthcare who said working with PwC was a nightmare - basically teaching their associates how healthcare worked. The comment about pretty is really about how PwC seems to hire intentionally for visual appeal in their client facing roles. The company is basically selling confidence in their competence, so using the halo effect is a pretty natural strategy. It also lingers for me as being a bit icky.
