Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Good, forward thinking company, but mediocre pay and leadership at the Manager/Director level
Pros: Great benefits, some projects can be interesting, travel, good clients.

Use PwC to your advantage career wise.  Do great work at the client site, build strong relationships with clients and then jump ship for a significant boost in pay.  That is exactly what I am doing and I advise you to do the same.  

After a few years in industry, you can come back to PwC (if you choose) and get paid a lot more.
Cons: This is NOT an up or out culture.  There are SO MANY Managers/Directors that have been in the industry for a long time that have NO subject matter expertise.  

On projects, these are the types who just interact with the clients and literally do NO work all day.  There have been instances where myself or other more experienced Managers/Directors have had to step in and salvage the mistakes these inept people have made.  

Pay is way out of whack.  You can expect to make a good 30% more at another company.  That's why I decided to leave!
