Pros
You’ll learn how to ~werk grl~. But seriously it’s like pretty regularly 7 am - 7 pm during a good week.
Cons
PwC has a marketing campaign called “Be Well, Work Well” but it’s more like… “Be well*, work well *as long as being well doesn’t prevent you from working 80 hour weeks, taking 6 AM daily stand ups, and taking on your director’s and partner’s extra work” I was with the firm for 8 years and PwC is a compliance culture - and this translates to management style. At least in the practice I left, there is a very narrow view of what professional growth can and should look like (EPM-heavy, out of the box solutioning). This stifles creative solutioning and the ability to go to market with new service offerings. They’ve been trying to make RPA happen for like 5 years and still can’t figure it out. But like, you’ll make mediocre money? This isn’t a happy place to work. Take the 10k paycut and be happy - they don’t pay you enough for how much they want to control your life.
