Very Depressing. Bullying is the norm in this firm
Pros: A good place to develop professional skills (both technical and soft skills). You will learn about planning, organizing, dealing with people. The most valuable skill I've ever learn is to be able to survive and learn on your own without help as you will most likely be thrown into a deep end with very limited coaching and guidance. The firm has wide range of training and self-learning resources.

The firm is a good place to build your reputation on resume. Stay for 2-3 years and move on is the best plan for your career. My credential has been improved a lot because of my work with PwC and now hold senior position.
Cons: Superiors are not available when you need them. They don't spend much time on coaching and guiding the juniors. Development is your own responsibility. When juniors make mistakes, they will put it in performance appraisal but they don't not acknowledge that the they contribute to the mistake due to failure to provide necessary coaching and guidance. 

Bullying is very alive in this firm. Superiors will do anything to shift the blame. Juniors are often victimised. 

Performance is not solely based on hard work and committment. Skills are not enough. You need to play the politics, use your charm and wits to survive in this firm.
