Pros

- Looks good on your resume, and that's about it - Beginning pay is fair, even though less than ideal - Stay at good hotels when traveling, even though you're always at the office

Cons

- Management has absolutely no respect whatsoever for employees - Management treat employees who are in their thirties and forties like 5-year old children - You may have to do really stupid tasks like get your boss's lunch or throw away your boss's trash just because he thinks he's above it, and even though you have Master's degrees and years of experience - Management often falsely accuse staff and employees of things that they did not do - The promotion goes to the coworker who goes out for 2-hour or 3-hour lunches, and you may not get one even though you work like a dog and skip meals to satisfy your boss - Most supervisors are micromanagers and do not let you work peacefully after administering your work - Managers are often dishonest in terms of chargeability, and will screw clients by charging them even though the employees are only "pretending" to do work or "looking busy," and this is especially done by senior/managers and above, only Staff actually do work at this firm, without getting any credit for it - A whole novel can be written about bad points of working at this seemingly great firm, don't come here just because of the name because it's equivalent to misjudging a book by its cover

Pros

There are opportunities across the globe because of the large size of the organization.

Cons

Compensation is terrible even compared to other big four accounting firms. Management has to many layers and too much over lap. People are dull and lack innovation.
