Pros

The shutdown periods were nice where we could take the whole week off without worrying about a thing! Oh and the company parties (mainly New Years)

Cons

Everything else! From salary to hours. Salary hurts the most, it's nothing compared to the big banks (JPM, McKinsey and so on) and it's not like you work any less!

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.
