Pros

Great exposure/experience Smart co-workers Generous time off

Cons

Since most employees are competent, how likable you are becomes the differentiator (this could be a pro or a con depending on your personality) Near flat raises/bonuses at the moment A good number of in-charge Seniors aren't ready for the responsibility Since there is little to no leeway in the firms structured compensation/promotion plan it's a near guarantee that the best/brightest will at some point leave for greener pastures

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.
