PwC Careers and Employment

PwC believed in if you work hard you get to play hard. Days off were given if you did numerous nights of over time to assist in the preparation of proposals as well as being paid for OT.

Work hard in a great culture

Working at PwC is very demanding but provides a great opportunity to work with high performing individuals in a supportive and positive environment. The company's culture places a lot of emphasis on the well being of our employees and supports a flexible work/life balance. All in all, a good place to work if you are willing to work hard, put in the hours and work with high quality team in the finance/accounting space.

Great Company But Work-Life Balance Lacking

While both the company and the people at PwC are great, work/life balance is lacking to a large degree. You will learn a lot and can quickly grow but you will need to be prepared to work a lot.

Excellent professional development and compensation but work-life balance can be difficult

Countless opportunities for professional development in terms of technical knowledge and global network of qualified people. The size of the transactions I've seen are massive (in the billions), and you get to learn a lot about the ins and outs of a multinational company in your professional area.The starting pay for entry level will depend largely on the education level (JD/LLM vs. accounting degree), but we see it level off over time, which can mean very competitive pay.I wouldn't expect work-life balance when it comes to working hours, but my team has been very flexible with working remotely.Caveat: I have heard that experience will depend on your geographic location, team, and client/engagement. I consider myself lucky for meeting my team and being on the client accounts that I am on. But the vast majority of PwC professionals that I've worked with internally (other locations (including foreign) and different line of service) have been very easy to work with.

Good opportunities at a large firm.

A lot of good opportunities especially when first starting out. The overall structures in place to help you succeed are proven but you do have to put forth the right effort in order to succeed, as it should be.
