Pros

Flexible working times and accommodating senior management. A variety of work in different industries and excellent career opportunities. Can be very challenging at time but efforts are never overlooked. A strong sense of team including team functions and informal beers.

Cons

Unreasonable turnaround times due to poor client management. The risk management processes are very convoluted and drawn out taking far too much time to complete. Support staff seem to work against you than with you by nagging about procedures and rules when it was clear they were hired to alleviate those tasks from client facing staff.

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.
