Pros

The firm pays for study materials and fees for the CPA exam. Pay is decent.

Cons

Partners and managers pick favorites and only assign consistent billable work to their staff that they like. Staff are strung along with promised promotions and then fired right after busy season when the business isn’t doing well.
