PwC offers amazing opportunities to update your resume with new experiences from every client engagement.
Pros
PwC offers unprecedented client experience straight out of college in the advisory line of service. Me and my colleagues immediately began working with our clients and traveling around the country. Networking opportunities are second to none and I will certainly be leveraging my relationships with client management as I continue to advance in my career at PwC or elsewhere. Simply put, you get paid to learn the industry and to provide consulting services to the most prestigious companies in the world. Every new project can be viewed as an opportunity to add something new to your personal resume.
Cons
The audit and tax side is heavily affected by long, tedious overtime hours. The advisory side is not impacted as much due to a lack of a "busy season". On the technology side, I very rarely work more than 40-50 hours per week. Biggest problem with PwC is that you can sometimes feel like a small fish in a big ocean. It's easy to get lost in the crowd, and even easier to be overlooked in respect to recognition for outstanding client service, which leads to pay increase and even promotions. There is internal political drama at most big companies, and PwC is no different.
