Pros

No Pros at all to think of except you will be free all the time :) Join here only if you want to end your career here with no work and growth at all , as they don have any work really.

Cons

Ah now coming to the CONS the list is huge : - Management is worst , no process at all you have to run behind people for everything and they treat you very badly especially HR. - They advertise themselves as PwC but not even one PwC policy is implemented and the entire culture is of Baring Point consultancy which was a junk company about to close and PwC acquired it.Though PwC acquired it, it is still being manged by baring point folks and it has its own HR and other policies which suck (Not PwC policies.).There is nothing PwC in PwC SDC except the name which they keep shouting brand brand brand. - SDC acts a very cheap offshore team for PwC USA which throws JUNK documentation work or some minute works to be done , apart from that there is no work going on here at all and I am getting frustrated day by day. -They are cheats, I see many people being recruited even now I am writing this review for them, ppl pls dont join here and spoil your career. -Don't ignore this review - I did the same mistake and joined and I am repenting now. -The directors - they are a laughing stock many of them don't know to even communicate properly in english.According to them you should work on anything then only you will grow.Complete idiots who miss manage resources. - You will be recruited for some technology but you will never work on that technology except for some small tiny works, rest of the time they will use you for some junk works like documentation , data entry and testing.Believe me many good developers are doing this sorta work here. - Projects ? there are no projects here at all, All projects run in the USA and they will throw small tiny non challenging monotonous work here which will be our project! sorry sorry Task ! - Technology wise they don't know anything at all , they don't know the market because they can never get project themselves, that is there model : PwC US get projects , throws some junk work to PwC SDC bangalore. PwC SDC Bangalore can by itself cannot find projects , that is there working model.

Pros

Other companies are impressed by the entry of "PWC" on your resume.

Cons

It's unfortunate that I have to say the things that I'm about to say however, I feel that it is important for folks to understand what they're getting themselves into. 1) I have several years of professional experience but until my experience at PWC, I had never seen so much overt discrimination - both racism and sexism. 2) There is no work/life balance. 3) You are seldom matched to an opportunity which fits your skill set. 4) Management is very random about communication, sincerity, and ethics.

Pros

Unfortunately, the only pro I can think of is the reputation of the company (Big 4 name). Besides that, there really aren't any positives to working here and it's sad people will give up years of their life to work here hoping to climb up this imaginary career ladder to get them to a "stable" or "better" future

Cons

I absolutely was disgusted with my entire time here. I left after a year but that was already too long and regret staying for a whole year. The training did nothing to prepare you for the workload and once the audit starts, many teams don't provide adequate on the job training or have time to answer questions adequately so you're stuck trying to understand everything on your own. People are impatient, busy, arrogant, and condescending which makes for a toxic environment. Compensation was also low and there was no work-life balance. People are constantly looking for other opportunities and someone quits every week. The only reason people stay is their "hope" of a better future. I'm in a much better place now that I left and am working for a company I absolutely love and adore so to those who are scared of leaving because the Big 4 poisons your mind into thinking you're committing career suicide, that is absolutely not true.
