"I worked at the Chicago office of PwC, LLP for six months (short-term contract). It was the best experience I've had so far in my contracting career. It started with being engaged with PwC by being included in firmwide emails of events/activities that I could get involved with. I was invited and encouraged to attend the holiday party. I felt that my input and suggestions were heard and valued. At the Sr. Associate level, I was properly assigned to projects and felt truly valued as a member of these projects. And, this firm values employee having balance in their work life. For example, team members are encouraged to take walking breaks throughout the day, gather for team outings, and had friendly health challenges."

"Amazing company to work for. Love the work life balance. Helps candidates grow in a professional services environment by giving exposure to different clients, different projects. My overall experience is amazing. I have built the best relationships with so many people from different backgrounds. The only drawback is the compensation and time to grow."

"The best way to succeed and to progress is to work hard and proactively take on more responsibility."
