At PwC, we put our people first - giving them a range of opportunities to succeed both personally and professionally. For 2009, we're proud once again to be named as one of Canada's Top 100 Employers, marking the fifth consecutive year that our firm has received this recognition.
This year, 16,000 employers were invited to apply for the competition from a range of industries across the country. Participants are required to complete an extensive application process that includes a detailed review of operations, HR practices, charitable efforts and community involvement.
Furthermore, for the third year running, PwC has also been named one of Greater Toronto's Top 75 Employers. This is a special designation within the Top 100 competition recognizing employers in the region or city in which they are headquartered.
These honours are external recognition of our efforts to deliver a distinctive experience for our people and to make PwC an employer of choice.
PwC offers our employees comprehensive development programs, competitive employee benefits packages, and progressive national and global career opportunities. The firm also supports and encourages involvement with corporate and social responsibility initiatives, including volunteer activities that benefit the community.
