Indeed Featured review The most useful review selected by Indeed. It's a huge company so you definitely feel like a number most of the time but my department has extremely intelligent and nice people. Overall the mission of the company is great but I think it sometimes doesn't trickle all the way down to the "working" folks level.

Pros Big company, potential mobility. Was this review helpful? Report Share. Like many companies, PwC is built on marketing. Come work here! Great Pay! Great Benefits! Great training! NO problem. One benefit, money each month toward student loans, does not apply to all employees. So, if you were in an Administrative role, you are ineligible for some of the "peak" benefits. As far as people go Therefore, people-especially Administrative people-are always in flux You can make any company appear to be anything you want with the right marketing campaign!

Pros Tuition Reimbursement. Cons Work Culture. Great platform. Been with firm 8 years. High turn over for public accounting industry. Experience really depends on engagement team you get staffed on. Overall good platform. Ok for fresh undergrads but not for long term. Teams and people can be clique. Hard to meet billable hours and can face job insecurity when businesses are slow.

Payment is always below the market, long hours with poor life balance Data Scientist Current Employee - United States - September 28, You will be paid less than the market and probably less than the other Big 4.

If you want to progress you will need to put a stupid amount of hours. Flexibility is fine. Pros Working from home. Cons Poor Management, Low Payment.

Leave a review. Help people like you. Employee exploit. After working countless busy seasons they decided that I was not fit for the job. Doing my part but management just didn't care. At the end of the day, the paper hold everything that is thrown in it.

I think it's a good company but your impression must depend on each project you are assigned to. Sometimes you need to work extra to meet the expectation. Global network was very nice. Most people I've met have been pretty great, but overall the work is endless for really poor compensation.

Most people I know have left for greener pastures in terms of compensation and work life balance. PwC is reputed to be a more friendly, sociable firm than the other Big Four firms, with more social and sports events than the others.

It is seen as 'a firm that takes care of its employees'. It is often noted that the salary can be lower at PwC. Many companies out there are doing some great things for their employees — so how does such a large employer like PwC stay competitive and continue its presence on Fortune's list?

This year, the firm earned the 23 spot on the list -- the highest ranking they've received yet! Pros I rather not say. Cons I rather not say. Toxic Exp. They will brainwash you first a few weeks, but eventually they will show you the truth. Just stay away from this company. Pros none. Cons unfairness. Jobs at PwC. International Tax Services Intern - Summer Tax Seasonal Intern - Winter I would like to be employed at an amazing company as PwC. I encourage my kids to study in the direction in order for them to be employed at PwC.

Working as a Frontline Receptionist at the time, my most enjoyable moment is assisting each and every staff member with my excellent service the moment they arrived at work. Even so that that one of the Supervisors contact me just to tell me they really miss my smile at reception. It is such a good feeling to know people appreciate your efforts in going the extra-mile especially when it comes to double bookings of boardrooms, but you still find a way to accommodate them.

Pros Meeting new people and their lunches are amazing. Cons None. Pros Work life balance. Cons No clear career path. Louis, MO - September 8, There are some toxic people in the group. Be aware. Some people will try to slow down your promotion and keep you at the same level. Jean Wine is a construction attorney whose legal practice is exclusively devoted to the construction industry.
