A Great Place to Work
Pros: Lots of opportunities to advance your career exist at the firm. You are definitely put on the fast track at PwC, and get exposure to many many different organizations.

Having PwC on your resume is like having a silver plating, and gets you a lot of credibility in the marketplace. The Firm does support it's staff, and appears to have an interest in their well being. There's lots of metrics to manage (particularly at the higher levels) but that could also be seen as a con.
