Great Company, Great Staff - Extremely Boring and Unsatisfying Work.
Pros: PwC is a great brand - it provides good financial training for graduates and is a springboard from which you can go on to do bigger and better things. The people I worked with were also dynamic, enthusiastic and intelligent (on the whole!). The training is generally good.
Cons: Despite the recruitment marketing - audit is BORING - be prepared to work long hours and be extremely bored! Especially in your first years where you could spend a whole week ticking invoices off against a spreadsheet. Be prepared, the Managers will probably tell you that you're going to be some business advisor in an attempt to seduce the best graduates - you won't be - you'll be an audit monkey! Don't pay attention to the fact that PwC is the Times Graduate Employer of the Year - the only people who vote in this survey are students who have never set foot inside the company - you could therefore call PwC - the best graduate marketing company of the year!
