Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current

A great place to work for all but, promotions for support staff is limited.
Pros: In the IFS group, the firm gives many opportunities to lead.  US IT creates an environment which many can take on new projects and learn new skills on the job.  The firm is very generous with vacation time, 3 weeks for all employees 2 years and below, 4.5 weeks for all staff above 2 years of service.  PwC also has a very good training program. A variety of courses are available in house, online and through external vendor.
Cons: Within the IFS group, the opportunities for advancement are minimal.  Management position are static.  US IT promotions are only available when an position opens.  It's very easy to become lost in this organization.  Most IT functions are centralized so, local IT support has limited access to a variety of systems.
