Regret joining PwC after my MBA
Pros: Strong brand name recognition 
Good perks when traveling
Cons: Lack of subject matter expertise of most employees besides project management
Very political
99% of the project work do not require an MBA degree
Most of the time, I am just bugging the client to see if they have completed their task
Nothing but a glorified soccer mom making sure project team has completed their task on time on most projects
You do not gain any solid technical skills to leave PwC; after a fews years you are stuck there because you lack any subject matter expertise in anything unlike your peers in other consulting firms
You tend to get pigeon holed based on your experience prior to your MBA degree
Looking to leave but lack the necessary experience besides project management skills
