Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: former

Good firm, good career advancement potential, great place to start.
Pros: Large noteworthy top-tier public accounting firm.  Access to multiple clients and industries.  Good opportunities for advancement.  Public reputation of firm.
Cons: The performance evaluation process is a joke, there is a high degree of subjectivity, protectionism, and lack of incentive for meaningful feedback imbedded in the process.  Too much focus on internal metrics and not enough focus on professional development.  There is a lot of propaganda on wanting to be the "distinctive" firm, but the reality is that PwC is at times distinctive in a bad way.
