Great place to work
Pros: -Incredibly smart people 
-Amazing flexibility: as long as you meet your deadlines and deliver high quality work, you can do it however or whenever you want. 
-The firm values and prioritizes diversity
-Generous vacation time and unlimited sick days 
-Perks: lots of discounts on travel, museums, shopping etc. 
-Career opportunities -- you really can make your own way at PwC. So many people have had several mini-careers within the firm.
Cons: -Culture of overachievers. While the people are great, oftentimes they create unnecessary work and overload themselves with projects (regardless of the fact that it may have little value). It's almost like being overworked is a badge of honor. However with the new leadership, I see this starting to be addressed. 
-Collaborative to a fault. You are going to have too many cooks in the kitchen no matter what you are doing. It's just the way the firm is. This makes the decision-making process painfully slow. 

But these are small things compared to other places I've worked.
