Pros

Opportunity to work with New Jersey and Mumbai (which is as far as "Global" now goes)

Cons

- "Americanisation" of a Global firm - total loss of autonomy or independence at all levels - project managers who no longer have time to manage and have become "box - tickers" - enforced de-skilling e.g. multi-skilled staff have recently been forced to choose which role to dedicate themselves - true fear of challenging senior management. Whilst speaking truth to power was never common in this firm it is no longer a practice of which one even hears rumous

Good place to start career and gain technical skills. a lot of internal opportunities if you woyuld like to pursue something different.

No worklife balance, and not much appreciation when you achieve something great! Work pressure is constant which is normal in any big 4.

Pros

- Good foundation to accounting - Opportunity to interact with great minds in the industry - Experience respected in the industry - Flexibility (especially as one goes up the levels)

Cons

- Not challenging enough - Poor pay (Bonus was a joke!) - Lot of face time (vis-a-vis team work!) - Work life balance can be tough to maintain during busy season which is minimally 4 months of the year plus if on a public client, then add 3 more months to that
