Pros

The firm works very hard to provide a team oriented environment that rewards excellence and provides regaular performance and coaching feedback. Further, it is not overyly caught up with titles, but rather takes a nice team approach to meeting client needs.

Cons

Due to the accounting focus of the firm, it is laden with red tape for some of the simplest tasks. This makes the organization a little slow to change and adapt to market conditions and client needs.

Pros

Lots of opportunities to advance your career exist at the firm. You are definitely put on the fast track at PwC, and get exposure to many many different organizations. Even if you're not a partner candidate, you can still gain a tremendous amount of exposure to various skills and organizations (though I wouldn't vocally express a disinterest in the partnership). Having PwC on your resume is like having a silver plating, and gets you a lot of credibility in the marketplace. The Firm does support it's staff, and appears to have an interest in their well being. There's lots of metrics to manage (particularly at the higher levels) but that could also be seen as a con.

Pros

PwC is an excellent place to boost your resume and gain the requisite CPA experience. After working for a year or two the work can get a little repetitive. It is not until you reach the higher levels of management that you are involved in the real complex analysis. The training is also top notch. Associates are on the bleeding edge of the developments in the accounting world (Fair Value, IFRS, etc.)

Cons

The demand to work countless hours of unpaid overtime is far and away the biggest downside. There is an expectation that you eat, breath and sleep PwC, no matter what the corporate branding says otherwise.
