Dislikes: <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">Salary hike is not good</mark>. Promotions depends on office politics rather than your skillsets. Sometimes if there is no project with your team then the entire resource cluster stays unproductive for months. Switching to other team is next to impossible.

Dislikes: It's totally depends upon manager, this time I got terrible manager (lady) who is not giving any work to me and if on request of uper manager I received any work then also she asks me to charge half an hour only for individual return which is not fair.
Likes: <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">Everything here is average in terms of work culture, work life balance, salary and benefits, promotions, learning and development and work satisfaction</mark>. It depends on the manager under which you are working and the team you are a part of. (Auditing domain perspective)
Dislikes: Work life balance in Audit is not available. Salaries and appraisals not upto the mark.

Likes: 1. There is enough potential for growth if you like to work in the offshore segment.
2<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">. The salary is good</mark>.
3. Good experience if you want to move out of India in other AC's or Onshore teams. Although there have been less opportunity to move to the onshore team recently.
Dislikes: 1. There is no concept of work life balance. There seems to be busy season all around the year specially in EUM and TMT Industry.
2. If your manager has a habbit of micromanagement then it is going to be very difficult to grow in your job.
3. Minimal to no client facing audit experience.

Dislikes: In the US partner firms, the US engagement team calls the shots and you’re an offshore resource.
You do have a say in the decision making process and get to experience the end to end delivery but rarely will be running an entire project on your own.
The above varies not just within the PwC teams but also within the individual client... Read More
Likes: They basically report to engagement teams who are located in different countries ( US & Europe).
So the structure is like a Senior Manager working from India is afraid of an Associate sitting in UK.
Now guess if you are an associate.
Also no job security. They keep firing their employees for petty reasons.
Dislikes: <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;">No work recognition, no timely promotion, very less increment, peanut size bonus</mark>.
