Houston Financial Service Asset Management industry sucks
Pros: Coaching system in PwC is great. PwC really emphasize on real-time coaching and feedback.  You are improving all the time as the seniors and the managers will really focus on your improvement points. It is a little bit annoying sometimes. After all the late nights and even 2am all the week they are still saying, you can do better on this this and that. But it is still beneficial to you to know all of them at the beginning point of your career.
Cons: There are 6-7 year ends for the asset management industry and for every year-end audit the engagement is 2 months long. So for all the year round you work like hell and get nothing out of if. You do not get better early promote chances than the rest of the team. You get more chances on better performance review than people in other teams who work a lot less than you because partners are not willing to give that many outstanding performance to this single industry, especially a industry not as profitable as oil and gas industry.
