Pros

There are some (very few) great HR employees at the organization.

Cons

There is no work life balance at this organization. The expectations are so high on every single team, that you will work yourself to the bone for absolutely no money. Management on every team is chosen by nepotism, unless you are liked by senior leadership there is absolutely no way you will move up. There are also mass layoffs constantly that nobody will every talk about.

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
