Company: PwC
Date: 2010-01-31
Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current

No training budget, Pays less than other big 4 by 15-20%
Pros: Respected name, great colleagues
Everyone benefits somehow from working for PwC
Cons: low pay
NO TRAINING BUDGET? YOU MUST BE KIDDING...
Salary freeze??? a 3% inflation rate increase for all employees would have cost partners an 0.1% pay cut of their average £800K /annum salary

Lots of travel for the salary with no extra pay for being away from home 200+ days a year
Low Bonuses if any

Still an Accounting firm, to compete in consulting PwC should invest in people as much as Mckinsey does.

PwC Diploma?? costs as much as an MBA... to learn about soft skills, a joke of a degree. Only recognised at PwC UK... are partners worried that people would leave afterwards if they sponsor an MBA? then they should pay competitively
