And, with this move, PwC becomes one of the biggest employers to embrace permanent work-from-home policy.

A news portal (India.com), citing international media reports, quoted PwC’s deputy people leader Yolanda Seals-Coffield saying that employees who will get permanent remote work facility would see a salary cut.

Geographic location matters, as those working from a 'lower-cost location', will see their pay decrease, he added. On similar lines, Google also offers location-based compensation packages to its employees.

Besides other major accounting firms, such as Deloitte and KPMG, have also been allowing employees to work from home. Apart from these firms, several IT companies such as TCS, Wipro, and Cognizant are offering flexible remote work choices to employees.
