Great company name, will work hard
Pros: PwC has great benefits for employees. It also has a great name for your résumé - this really gets noticed and helps get your foot in the door at other companies. You will learn a lot while working at PwC regardless of how long you've been there. 
The people you work with are fantastic for the most part, it's a fun group and make it worth going in every day.
Cons: Just like any big 4 job, employees are overworked. Specifically in risk assurance, people work on many engagements at a time and superiors have no insight as to your workload. This makes it difficult to juggle since they all think their work is top priority, and leads to working extremely long hours. 
I was a campus hire. I would get a solid understanding of what you are doing in this job as they kind of breeze over what the work really is during the recruiting process and I was looking basically at company name. Short hand for this position is IT audit - make sure you know what that is.
