Good place to start - then get out!
Pros: BEST reason to work for PwC: RESUME!  Secondly, PwC will coach you in professionalism and prepare you to work in a leadership capacity.  PwC will generously accomodate your credential and learning needs as well as wine and dine the heck out of you.  Good place to START a career.
Cons: The environment is very inflexible; you will be put into a mold and shuffled off down the consulting assembly line.  Unhappy?  Don't bother them with your wellbeing - just get the work done.  PwC has a poor policy regarding utilization (little-to-no consideration given to amount of work executive staff is pulling in) and an unsatisfactory evaluation procedure.  PwC has an awful feedback system that is regularly the joke of mangers and staff-level employees.  PwC falsely praises its work-life balance - don't fall for it.  Associates and Senior Associates are commodities to this firm.
