Pros

There is a career path that is specific and understood. If you want a job to devote yourself to, a big-four accounting firm career will give you that chance.

Cons

No matter how hard the firms try, getting work life balance right is hard. Understand that it is your responsibility as well as your employer to make sure you get the balance you need.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
