Pros

Well respected company, looks really good on your resume, thrown right into the engagements and are asked to perform meaningful work right away. Starting at this company opens doors for workers, lots of potential to network and get your name out there. Its sort of like going to a great college, your not guaranteed success, put it sure pushed you in the right direction

Cons

Long long hours, but everyone already knows that, still hard to take sometimes. While money is good, when actually looked at on a per hour basis, its not that impressive. Commutes suck.

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.
