Pros

You learn a lot, all kinds of returns from scratch. You have the support of your team and can easily communicate with people of any title. Great work life balance, except a couple of weeks before due dates, everybody is pretty relaxed.

Cons

The worst part is awkward promotion, salary increase and bonus compensation, it's very uneven, maybe because their hostile crazy HR intervenes, but lawyers get 20K more at start than accountants; summer interns enjoy more training and faster promotions.

Pros

Lots of chances to work on variety of returns. Challenging, fast paced. Open door environment that it is easy to communicate with management level directly. They care about you and your health. Good benefit. They allow you to wear jeans and provide dinner/fruits during busy season.

Cons

there are always tons of work and deadline, which are typical in this profession and in a big company. Yet, when it is so rush, it gives less chances for you to review and really learn/understand what you just prepared. The stress is there, but you will learn how to deal with it.
