Burrowes’ job is to destroy PwC Australia, if necessary, to protect PwC Global. That is his sole performance metric.
Burrowes is sprawled in his Orlebar Browns, lightly crisping on a deck chair at the Six Senses, getting brain freeze from the Mai Tais. He’s telling Ryno on their morning Teams call, “I’ve so got this.”Before jetting off last week, Burrowes briefed retired PwC Australia partners on the firm’s global inquiry – being run by Allens Linklaters – into the involvement of PwC partners outside Australia in the tax leaks scandal.
How unexpected; I mean, what a shock! This is an inquiry that nobody external can verify and that is entirely beyond the reach of the Australian parliament – the only authority thus far capable of prising any accountability out of PwC. That’s why Kev can relax in the Maldives.: to pre-judge, to pre-determine, to stabilise and then to sanitise. To coldly contain this scandal, and its consequences, to the local firm. To destroy PwC Australia, if necessary, to protect PwC Global.
Think about the plausibility of this version of events. We already know that multiple PwC Australia partners – one– travelled to Silicon Valley and pitched the firm’s new anti-MAAL schemes to the world’s biggest technology companies in 2015. Some of those companies, like Uber and Facebook , were the marquee clients of PwC USA.
