      The job sucks

      Transfer pricing associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Exposure to big companies and resume builder

      Cons

      This was a horrible job. I would never recommend to anyone especially if you are not coming straight from undergrad. The work you are given is basically editing and updating 400 pages reports. Everything is disorganized, everyone is stressed and most of the associate work is admin.

      Relatively young, fast-paced, high-expectations environment with good pay but high stress

      Pros

      PwC Advisory offers great consulting experiences without necessarily needing a higher education degree than a Bachelor's. It's a great-paying first job after college, as I had. The company culture embraces change quickly compared to the cultures of many large private and public clients-firms I observed. Examples of these changes are the annual review/performance process, ways to work on work-life balance, and using technology at work such as transitioning off Lotus Notes email and onto Google suite. Advisory consultants can receive many benefits and perks such as company-paid cellphones and plans, annual trainings in fun resorts/locations, company-paid food and transport while traveling, and relatively top of the line work laptops. PwC's technology consulting division makes heavy use of its Service Delivery Centers around the world (for examples, in Bangalore, India) so this is a great opportunity to work with colleagues globally, but can also be challenging by nature of working by long-distance.

      Cons

      The price of PwC's perks are that we are expected to be chained to email/phones/instant messaging system at all times. There is a strong sense of hierarchy between job levels that is not necessarily based on character or merit. For example, a "Director" can email an associate and expect a reply within an hour, but it's acceptable that the same director ignores or replies to an associate more than 1 week later. This instilled 'fear' and the expectation to be very responsive to one's superiors is not very relaxing. PwC is working on work-life balance but there is still a ways to go -- many employees work late into the night, write emails on weekends, etc because they feel pressured by their work's urgency.

      Sick environment

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great enterprise company with a lot of opportunity to grow, learn and develop your career.

      Cons

      If you join the wrong team, there is nothing you can do to save your career. It's a very sick culture, there is no integration, equality or ethical behavior. They stab each other on their back every single day.
