Pros

You like doing tax work as an auditor and potentially broadening your horizons to do work you never planned on doing.

Cons

If you want to be an auditor here, apply for another firm. You're stuck with 2+ seasons per year due to being forced into tax work. Managers take up most of the audit engagements, and stifle the professional growth of aspiring audit associates. Furthermore, there are ethical and moral shortcomings with a particular administrative assistant. Bonuses are almost existent until you're a manager, and if you don't fall under that you'd get a taxed $500 "modest" holiday bonus along with holiday gift cards that are taken out of our bi-weekly wages.

Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.
