Pros

Their good clients, if you have enough political clout to get to work for the ones you want. However, be prepared to work in insurance or some othr crappy industry.

Cons

For the hours worked, this must be the sweat shop of the 21st century. I will not go into great detail here, as I have spoken enough about the firm on numerous other sites. That said, I have never met such a large number of backstabbing clones with an arrogant attitude. You either fit into the social fabric of the firm’s culture, or you are pretty much dead. The management of people at the firm is seriously lacking. Do not expect to be treated as a human being if you have a problem with a co-worker. Most importantly, the politics at PwC is beyond anything I ever could have imagined. It is in-your-face and accepted at all levels of the organization. In other words, people will sell their mothers for a buck in order to get a promotion. Do not always count on your skill set to get you through the day. Come review time, that club of ole boys will rear its ugly head. Oh, and one more thing: often expect to be pigeonholed into a client or industry for almost two years before having a pick at what you want. You actually do not “build your own career” here. HR builds it for you, and if you do not like it, then try another firm. They have a 30% (being generous here) or lower retention rate, anyway...

Pros

There is good opprotunity to advance yourself in your career. Having Price water house coopers on your resume will open doors in the future. Price water house coopers pays the highest in the region for starting pay. The firm is much more willing to be flexible with you when it comes to changing offices in comparison to the other big three.

Cons

You are paid on salary and the overtime really cuts back on your expected hourly rate. If you work on the west coast you should be prepared to travel to the east coast often for training. As is expected in public accounting dont be surprised to give up saturdays and sometimes sundays.
