Pros

Global recognition of Big 4. Good benefits. Ability to work on a variety of client issues.

Cons

Male-dominated industry; old boys network. Inequality of male/female wages and leadership/promotion opportunities. Harrassment allowed from males if they are perceived to be "rain makers". Golden boys don't get removed/laid off - layoffs are based upon who knows you.

Pros

Opportunity to work towards a professional qualification (CA, ACCA etc). Invaluable to have Big 4 on your CV. Exposure to different clients and industries.

Cons

Long hours, especially during busy season. Low pay (less than £20k) is not enough. Low morale. Being expected to bend over backwards and work extremely hard in order to line the partners' pockets with little thanks or reward.

Pros

Good working environment, benefits. People act in a professional manner, and most of the time there is work/life balance. Good location. More budget to take care of their employees. Well-established business processes.

Cons

Speed of advancement slower than a smaller company. Annual salary increase can be small. On average the salary is less than working in an IT company. Some employees with seniority may not fit their current job anymore but unspoken policy would help them stay.
