Career opportunities that are hard to beat - but you'll need to give your pound of flesh in return!
Pros: - Amazing client base with unparalleled opportunities. Ability to work across different industries, with different clients and in locations across the world provides variety and great career development
- Travel opportunities (if you want it) - been able to work across Europe, ME, US and Asia which has been incredibly rewarding
- People culture - collaborative, friendly colleagues (from all backgrounds) and leadership. You'll make friends for life at PwC. Firm will always offer you support when you need it.
- Great progression opportunities - you'll be promoted as soon as you can demonstrate performance at the grade above
-High performing and driven colleagues motivate you to be your best
-The power of the brand - with time at PwC you'll always be employable
Cons: - Compensation below Director level feels misaligned to the responsibilities and pressures that come with the role. This is no 9-5 job and for extended periods it can be difficult to maintain a work-life balance - but support is always there.
- To perform at the top levels, a considerable contribution over and above your full time client facing role is required (though this varies across the business) - BD, capability development etc, which can make work-life balance difficult at times
- Can be difficult for experienced hires with no network - relationships and reputation key to get the best roles
