Pros

Good Salary, 5 weeks a year paid time off plus holidays and past two years at least, 2 bonus days during holiday break, early release Fridays (called weekend jump start) - 2 hours PTO gifts awarded during summer (I know, when do we get any work done, right?! Nevermind, we earn it!); STRONG Mentorship program (and mentors are awarded national and local office recognition); Excellent diversity track record. Fellow employees are very nice. Flex-time and work from home. Strong benefits package.

Cons

A little hard to find out what is going on in local offices and their org structures, since many practices do not publish this information. This impacts career mobility somewhat, at least it makes one have to be very gregarious and creative in order to find out about opportunities. On the flip side, once you get someone's attention they are always open to discuss opportunities.

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.
