Pros

Good internal education plans, strong brand name, good possibilites for an international career, a good place to start your career. Decent benefits as over time compensation and flex time.

Cons

Really low salaries when working as an auditor. About 30-50 % lower than working as an accountant at regular corporation. Long hours when high season. Management is also auditors and not specialized in being leaders and role models. Being a good auditor doesnt mean that youre also a good leader. It takes long time to be a partner, often more than 10-12 years. In that time most people are fed up with waiting.

Pros

Excellent place for a career start. Diversity in background and experience of the employees. Excellent training programs. An opportunity to work with and learn from great, knowledgeable and skillful professionals. The benefits package.

Cons

Favoritism in assigning work and in promotions. Politics vs. merit, which leads to a low morale and lack of motivation. Relatively low pay. Weak HR support and assistance. Formality in the mentor, coach programs. Great ideas from the Firm's high management do not get the proper application, execution at a "field" level. Emphasize on productivity and utilization without providing adequate administrative personnel support. Unexplainable feeling of guild, despite the long hours, overtime and misbalanced work-life lifestyle.

Pros

big name on the resume; great place to start out with as college fresh graduate; exposure to different public companies, who are usually fairly sophisticated so not much spoon-feeding to them; smart professional coworkers (most of the time and this varies by office).

Cons

bad HR, not supportive, just thinking about lightening their workload. some managers are unprofessional, and you won't want to be one of them later. many forms to fill out before you can sign off from a job - really CYA (cover your ass) because you are dealing with public clients. Life and work balance is not a problem for PwC alone, just to be fair - if you want to learn, better put in the time!
