Pros

Ernst and Young is a great place to begin a career, especially if your undergraduate training is in accounting. You quickly gain exposure to a number of companies and industries, and you have the chance to interact in a meaningful way with your clients from day one. This allows you to quickly learn about your clients' businesses and the industries in which they operate.

Cons

The problem with Ernst and Young, as is the problem with most auditing firms, is that responsibilities seem rigid and it's difficult to differentiate your work from others in your peer group. A staff accountant's time becomes a commodity, with little difference who performs the work. Also, compensation is almost entirely disconnected from performance.

Pros

A worldwide network of probably some of the smarter people out there. Great place to break into a large array of finance specializations and of course accounting. Do TAS if you can - I feel it opens more doors.

Cons

The Warsaw office heads are pretty much clueless as to the fact that people hate working at that office. It's the lowest ranked of all internal survey offices in terms of quality of life, management, etc. If you can - work in a non developing market.
