Great company, but the office you work in makes or breaks the experience
Pros: PwC is a huge company with a great reputation. So it's great to have on your resume. And there are a lot of perks, like cell phone paid for, etc.
Cons: Depending on the office, they may overwork you like crazy. Los Angeles and San Jose are notorious for overworking people. For the salary, it's not worth it. As an attorney, if I was going to work that much I'd go work in a big law firm instead and make twice as much. 

The partner you work for really sets the tone and is vital to your experience. I was in a small office and was so excited when I started since the partner was well known in the field for doing interesting controversy and consulting work. But some of the managers who had been there a while did not push any of the work down to associates, really limiting the opportunities and experiences we could get. How are we going to develop if no one shares work or tries to share their knowledge? It was very disheartening, and the upper management made it clear they weren't concerned with our interests or career goals.
