Pros

Good pay for entry-level positions Good mentorship

Cons

Overtime & lots of working lunches I found myself on a team with poor leadership and fear-based tactics driving productivity. I attempted to switch teams, as I considered it to be an abusive environment. At the end of my contract for that project, they planned to switch me, but I was not willing to wait that long and chose to leave the company. With that said, I had peers on other projects that had good experiences - depends on the team on which you are placed.

Pros

The only pro that occurs to me is that there were a handful for legacy PWC FTE’s on board, many being leadership. However, there was no meaningful or obvious benefit to having them on board that one would imagine there might be.

Cons

-Poor leadership and management. -Poor communication from management. -Unprofessional and hostile work environments. -Passive aggressive leadership, gaslighting staffers that are overwhelmed. -Leadership side bar conversations about how certain employees are incompetent. -Poor budgeting and project forecasting. -Leadership creates false safe space then leverages knowledge against staffers. -Toxic environment. -Career opportunities aren’t nearly as open as leadership advertises. Expect to be siloed to the engagement/ team.
