Pros

High technical competence and outstanding reputation for professionalism reckoned by clients are the key elements of PwC strategy, also in consulting divisions. Also lower than average turnover and more relaxed 'demand' from Partners help balance own private and professional life and thereafter improve overall output to clients (i.e. less aggressivity, more confidentiality than with other Firms). Learning and education is key at all organisational levels and 'PwC catalogue' is fairly rich of courses aimed at both acquiring technicalities and soft skills. Finally, apart form few exceptions, colleagues are generally fair and open enugh to build on personal relationship in addition to profesisonal teaming up.

Cons

Career path is somehow slower than at other Firms. Besides, probably too much focus is put on 'pure' accounting themes in spite of other financial topics (e.g. financial market analysis, strategic option analysis, security structure analysis) which could help not only people in the advisory Service Lines, but also 'core business' aditors. In PwC Advisory compensation package is nice, but since it reflects relative job stability, it may result unappealing if compared to what is being offered by indirect competitors (mervchant banks, strategy houses, etc.). On the other hand, if compared to other Big Four, remuneration from PwC is slightly better, especially as far as fringe benefits are regarded.
