Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Excellent if you negotiate your way round properly
Pros: Great brand - helpful for building your own personal brand (notice how many people list themselves as "Ex-PwC")

Interesting, Challenging work - You will get a variety of projects, don't get bogged down with those which do not interest you, smash them out and move on to the next one

Excellent leadership - In general my experience has been that Industry/service leaders are very accommodating and happy to help you figure out what you're good at and also interested in. This is of course very important at the start of your career.

Collaboration - Team members are always happy to help if they have more expertise in a specific area. In my opinion this is a one of the biggest reasons behind their success. The company is huge and there will always be someone with more knowledge in a specific area. It's very important to collaborate with others and work to your strengths. People are more than happy to give credit where it's due.
Cons: Training - The training is largely on the job (with the exception of ACA). Considering the consulting practice is the fastest growing service line more should be invested in this area with regards to training.

Salary - Low compared to other similar companies, although the brand makes up slightly for this.

Review Cycle - It is very frustrating to have to wait a whole year for salary and benefit changes at the start of your career. A biannual review process would fix this.
