Pros

The firm provides lots of hands on and formal training. The work they do allows xcellent exposure and visibility to large companies. Flexibility in schedule is great. Five weeks of time-off per year.

Cons

One of the biggest downsides is that you can end up working a lot of hours and feel underpaid for what you do.

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.
