PwC Employer Reviews

A typical day for me in PwC can be very exciting and fast-paced. A day starts with group meetings, which sometimes include daily news and updates on influence of new industry trends on our clients, can be quite fascinating. The whole group can therefore exchange their progress and insights on certain projects. That allows people to take a peek over – more... other projects. Then everyone will go back to their corner and pick up their work. Lunch are occationally provided to whoever attend the seminars/discussions.

The firm provides industry-focused Assurance and Tax service worldwide, while excels in teaming and comprehensive understanding on Multinational corporations' industry and business problems.

A day in busy season can be quite long and though, but people are allowed days off afterward. – less

Exposure to diverse set of clients
Work with smart individuals
Challenging work

Lots to learn but a poor work life balance. Worked on multiple technologies but had to travel a lot. Family wise big loss less gain.

I am very lucky to get my first summer intern at PWC. This is a very professional and productive team and they provide a lot of professional training. This helps me a lot to adapt to the new environment.

Organization offers market competitive compensation and benefits plan.

Whether it was the audit or consulting service, PwC provided a great place to work.

Typical day at work includes supporting engagement team with data analysis and presentation development. Company culture is very dynamic and is suitable for a recent college grad.

Not a fan of the outsourcing of 500+ on New Year's Eve 2010 and all to save a buck. This did not improve the quality of support in fact the opposite was the case.

Management staff treated veteran employees atrociously and should be ashamed of themselves. Instead they are still collecting fat paychecks.

I have gladly moved on and am happy to no longer – more... be part of an extremely toxic environment. – less

It was definitely different than being on the private side of things, but you do get exposed to things/concepts on the business side once you get past the grunt work of a starting associate.

Lots of learning but leads to a bad work-life balance.
A day at work started at 9 and ends anywhere between 8pm to 2 am
In terms of learning, each day is a new day
The firm has a fair hierarchy and managers are extremely approachable

Deadlines are the hardest part

This accounting firm was all it could be...great leadership; great clients; great mobility.

Enjoyed working with my co workers around me. Had a good relationship with my manager which enabled me to contact them if I encountered any trouble in my role in the firms. The hardest part in my role was the physical jobs but I came to appreciate these as they gave me a chance to prove that I was able to handle any challenges given to me.
