      Kill the politicians!

      Director

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good brand and easy to get meetings with clients

      Cons

      Too political and narrow P&L driven- Amazingly there is no centralized CV system and the European countries don't talk to each other making it impossible to go for large multinational jobs. Tends to invest in the right things at the wrong time. There is no idea of centralized low cost resouce. Everybody says politics is normal in a corporate. However it damages business and damages client service. There is no incentive for anybody to work accross countries and divisions Career opportunities are determined by luck and who you work for. It is easier to move company than changing business unit.

      PwC offers a great deal of opportunities and is a fantastic training ground.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The people and the opportunities available throughout the firm. There are some great people in management, however there are few people who are pushed out of the firm so there is some variation in management, and often the best people are far too stretched as a result. There are huge opportunities there for the taking if you are prepared to commit yourself, such as secondments and varied work. PwC also offers a fantastic level of training, the first 2 years being a great learning curve.

      Cons

      Work-life balance is pretty much non-existent. Also, bonuses in audit do not reflect the level of work, and there is huge disparity across the amount of hours worked which I don't feel is appropriately rewarded.

      Top Performers get lumped in the same way as mediocre ones

      Advisory manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The variety of assignments allows a fresh graduate to quickly understand the key drivers of each industry; allowing him to find his specialisation sooner. Peers are helpful and the collegiate environment makes the long hours more bearable. Excellent knowledge network.

      Cons

      Long hours, low pay - they just dont pay enough for talent. As a result, when all the international banks start poaching employees from the Big 4, the people just left in droves. This further exacerbated the morale of those who stayed. Insufficient recognition of the top performers, blunt and undifferentiated promotion mechanism - top performers maybe get 5% more bonus than the mediocre ones. This meant top performers get pissed off and leave, whilst mediocre ones huddle in the safety of numbers and just coast along.
