Pros

It is a great resume builder and a lot of practical experience can be gained that could be beneficial in many different types of professions not limited to just accounting. There is also amazing opportunities for relocating to other offices, including the opportunity to work overseas.

Cons

There is a lot of unpredictability as it relates to the workload. There is a lot of travel involved, and you never really know what to expect from day-to-day. You could be sent on a 5-week out-of-town assignment at a moment's notice.

Pros

The best reasons to work at PwC are the benefits, which I find generous in general, though about on par with the other big 4 firms. Additionally - at least in my department - I find that my personal life is very respected. I've gone through a lot of personal difficulties this year and my department has been very supportive and encouraging. I think that they are also beginning to encourage knowledge sharing in a big way, with leadership supporting new initiatives that will draw KM into being more integral to the way the firm is run on a day-today basis. There are also good self-service research options for general firm use.

Cons

Given that I am in internal firm services, and do not work in the actual client practice, my experience my differ from those of other people. I feel that while they encourage professional growth, there are a lot of hindrances, too. Some of the advancement requires certain levels of education, and seems to ignore the fact that experience can be even more valuable that education. One of the other things is that they require a huge number of hours out of people. I guess that's pretty standard among the big 4; but people in the practice offices work 50-60 hours a week easily sometimes, and it's just too much - no matter how well one is paid.
