Please do not join this company if you want to progress in your career. Its going to ruin your future.
Pros: 1. It gives you a big initial Hike at the time of switching from a different organisation.
2. The average yearly hikes is the best in the market.
3. There is an year end break.
4. If one does not want to work, there is ample scope for that as even if you are allocated the work is not at all technical, demanding or time taking, let alone the unallocated case.
Cons: Phew...Its going to be a long long one. Please have some patience and read this very carefully and patiently as like YOU, I too was a young tech freak wanting to make a mark in the industry. But then...PwC happened. So here goes the list.
1. Lets start with the very job, the role that lures you into applying for this company. Please keep this in mind that the Job Description you will be seeing in the job ads or any other source , does not have any link with the task you will assigned. You will be crestfallen. Believe me its not a good feeling when you were hired for a technical role and the only thing you had to do was write proposals and make ppts for nonsensical stuffs. Whatever you had learnt in the past will be gone with the wind.
2. There are no projects. So you do not have any allocations all the year round. Do not be happy folks because here is where you will find the true colours of pwc work culture. BEWARE!!!!! PPTs and proposals are coming your way....All your seniors will be pounding you with all this nonsense. And to add to it people will ask you to write a white paper in 1 week time on a completely unknown topic. Now that is epic. And the best part of  it is that some sycophants even come up with a white paper; would not comment any further on this.
Also, all of a sudden your manager will tell you that tomorrow you have to appear for an interview on a completely unknown technology and you cannot refuse. 
3. The most important and the most revolting one: The OFFICE CULTURE: Its totally rotten in here. Your seniors will not talk to you politely. Sometimes they might ridicule you in front of everyone. Your seniors will not work and have a gala time and you will be working like hell.
4. If you are one who is technically sound and does his work honestly then you are in for big trouble. Because you will be accorded average or below average rating. And do not even think of going to the HRs. They drink and dine together; your managers and HRs.
5. DO YOU WANT ANYTHING MORE?? IF YES, then you should probably join because even after reading all this you are in positive frame of mind for this company then YOU HAVE ALL THE QUALITIES OF BEING THE TRUE SERVANT OF THIS RIDICULOUS COMPANY.
