Pros

- Great place to learn - Looks great on resume - Compensation is great if you can make it to manager

Cons

- Management is continuing to squeeze every ounce of energy they can out of you - Very shady messaging around changes to bonus structures. Not as transparent as they used to be. - Unachievable budget goals on everything you do - Compensation is not great, until you make manager

Pros

Many industry employers appreciate that if you can survive a few years at PwC, then you can survive long hours, low pay and are prepared to sell your soul.

Cons

As with many reviews on here I would single out Partner/Director bullying and as a significant problem. Partners are uninspiring sales people from a bygone error, so don’t expect to learn anything new. High pressure environment where politics smothers talent and lateral thinking. Work/life balance is more ‘live-to-work’ and working evenings, weekends and sacrificing your personal life is an expectation – the actual hourly pay rate is depressing. HR recruitment campaign propaganda paints over hierarchical ‘churn and burn’ high-turnover culture with false promises of ‘flexible working’, ‘flat structure’, ‘health and wellbeing’ and ‘personal development’. Actively practices pyramid scheme vitality curve for annual elimination of the bottom 10-20% no matter how well you perform. PwC values are fascicle, purely HR mechanism to discard unwanted human capital.
