PwC reviews

They abuse employees and do not pay well

Long, endless hours. Incredibly menial work. No real skills obtained, you only learn to work with firm-specific software and transferring data between excel files, so you don't really get transferable experience. There is no thinking involved, and trying to understand things simply comes at the cost of your own time; you are NOT an auditor here. You receive the work, you are instructed on where to put what piece of data, and then you repeat it 100 times. The most finesse involved is being clever with your hotkeys. A lot of micro-management - you will have at least 4-5+ superiors, and, surprise surprise, there is a "feedback" culture. Your enjoyment of the job will literally depend on what team you are placed on; some teams have a very relaxed environment with standard 8-hour days, while others will work 60 hours and be denied vacation time (yes this actually happens). The pay is abysmal, as it's "entry level" and the brand name allows them to pick their preferred price on your labor. Don't sacrifice your time and efforts for the "name." Big accounting companies and even local firms are catching on that PwC SDC =/= PwC practice office. If you are applying here, you should only do so because you need cash flow and a year of experience.
