      Business model not driven by senior management, but by regulatory and economic conditions which they know nothing about.

      Pros

      The Big 4 name on your resume. They give you the opportunity to lead, if you kiss someone's you know what.

      Cons

      If you are in the consulting side, you may get stuck with work that a monkey could do especially during a recession. They try and secure any type of work possible just to swindle money from their clients, even if their clients are bankrupt. The annual review is also a crapshoot. If you're favored, you'll be rewarded. It is hardly based on how hard you work. Come review time, it just matters who likes you and if they will pull for you.

      What you lose in salary you make up in work/life balance.

      Pros

      PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is a great place to work because of their belief in maintaining a fair work / life balance. It is very easy to take time off and the management is incredibly understanding of one's personal life. One's schedule is very flexible: I like to arrive quite early in the morning and leave early as well. Others like to arrive very late and stay late into the evening. The company also offers a large number of fun "bonuses" such as free ice cream all summer long, great bonding activities, and lots of firm-sponsored lunches, dinners, and drinks. PricewaterhouseCoopers really does a great job in taking care of its employees.

      Cons

      The downside of working at PricewaterhouseCoopers is the reduced salary for highly educated specialists. For example, a lawyer at PricewaterhouseCoopers will make less than his or her peers at a big or medium law firm. This is tempered by the reduced chargeable hour requirement, but this is still not an eight hour a day job. Another problem is that, as a large organization, PricewaterhouseCoopers is slow to change or perfect asinine administrative tasks. The annual review process, the various human resource projects, and their ilk take far too long to be helpful. Instead, these processes take up one's valuable time but add nothing of value to the work environment.
