Pros

Benefits package is pretty good on paper Remote work Lots of vacation but you can't take it

Cons

Toxic culture all around Expectation to work 24/7 with no compensation plus on your vacation too Management doesn't have any boundaries Incompetent co-workers, only desperate people stay long term waiting for immigration or to become managers after 10+ years of "service"

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

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.
