Rough but worth it.
Pros: Prestige, respect, and ease of finding other employment.  I had 20-30 offers the week I posted my resume.  It's a tough place to work for, but it pays off.
Cons: PricewaterhouseCoopers claims it favors "work/life balance" but what they really promote is "work/work balance".  Being able to work from home is not work/life balance.  Also, it is very difficult to take vacation.  Also, regardless of what they tell you, other Big 4 firms and most regional firms pay significantly higher than PwC.  However, the longer you're with PwC...the more you can command later on.  It is very much a double-edged sword.
