i did,

from what I have seen with fellow employees is that it can be a call back the next day to even about a month & half. dont know about rejection email, I think u can check ur status on the pwc website

PwC experience hiring is hit or miss depending on the city you are in.  However, I know that November is a weird month due to the Thanksgiving holiday.  The two weeks of onboarding pushed most of the start dates out to November 29.

With all of that said, just continue to communicate with your recruiter - whether that is a PwC recruiter or you have your own recruiter.  The recruiter wants to hand you off to the onboarding team as soon as possible so they can move on to the next group.  Keep in mind that many of the "recruiters" in PwC right now are contract workers and may not know the systems and could possibly delay your start date (but not by much).  Also, PwC has brought on over 1,400 new people in the last 3 months so.... you get the idea.

Good luck.
