Great opportunities and place to get experience
Pros: You work with smart people and high profile clients, and the work is mostly interesting. There are many opportunities to interact directly with the client even in your first year out of college, so you mature at a fast rate as a professional. PwC is also very flexible with working arrangements (in my experience) and the benefits are great. While salaries can be a little lower, they are competitive and they do a great job explaining how your comp is determined.
Cons: If you're in consulting you can be stuck on long travel engagements. Also while the firm is great at promoting diversity and women's initaitives, almost all the leaders are still white males which indirectly permeates the power structures at all levels. As you progress in the firm, it gets harder to envision having a strong family life AND being a leader at the firm while traveling 4-5 days a week to serve your clients.
