PricewaterhouseCoopers is a great launching pad for recent grads seeking a career in public accounting
Pros: The company is a great place to start a career, with a lot of training, mentoring, and guidance for graduates coming out of college.  They place equal emphasis on both soft and technical skills.
Cons: Depending on the team, promotions and recognition for good work can vary greatly.  I was part of two practices that operated completely differently and had a different employee dynamic - one that was very close, encouraging, and bonded like family, and another group that experienced employee turnover of 75% over a one-year period.  It's very important which team or practice you join, but it's hard to determine before you accept an offer.
