Pros

The benefits are pretty good. The firm offers a pension plan, which most companies no longer offer. There are a lot of volunteer opportunities.

Cons

Horrible work schedule, no life/work balance. It is all about who you know, no recognition for a job well done and poor raises. EMC (engagement management coordinator) role and the department is a joke. The PML and manager walk around with smiles and act like they are perfect. They have no clue what is going on with the employees in the department, 75% of the department is seeking other employment. Don't trust them with anything!

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.
