A place to BEGIN your career
Pros: Learn work ethic, organization, and stress management. A 9-5 would be a cakewalk after spending a year at PwC. 

The higher level employees within the organization tend to be very smart, driven, detail-oriented individuals. Lots can be learned from them.
Cons: The company has no regard for work/life balance and pushes its best employees the hardest. I spent an entire summer working 7 days/week and was not rewarded in any way. I am staffed on multiple clients and each team expects their respective work to be completed first. Overall, unless you love this lifestyle, not a place to stay for the long haul. 

As an associate, the work is labor-intensive and tedious. You will be asked to work on multiple clients and get the job done no matter the hour (I.e. Middle of the night/weekend/holiday)
