Employment status: former

Demanding place to work where collaboration and teaming were disincented.
Pros: PwC has great name recognition, hires the best and the brightest and provides ample opportunity for one to stretch in areas outside of one's comfort zone.
Cons: The cons primarily revolved around the way the company was organized around Audit, Tax and Consulting.  Each of the organizations operated as silos and it was very difficult to truly have team collaboration because of the revenue split between the partners on projects.  This drove bad behavior by teams to not bring in the relevant specialists on certain engagements which would short change clients.  Additionally there was no distinction between selling and delivery.  As one advanced in the firm, the emphasis became about revenue generation rather than project delivery.
