Pros

To gain experience and increase your marketability. I was able to encounter a variety of auditing clients, from large publically traded to private companies with around $200 million in annual revenue, as well as a diverse blend of accounting issues. I was always given as many responsibilities as I could handle and was working with senior management almost from day one.

Cons

Low pay and terrible work/life balance. I recently went 6 weeks without a day off--and it wasn't busy season. While that is unusual, you are expected to meet deadlines and working very late nights is common.

Pros

Name recognition. Upward opportunity if you stick around to become partner.

Cons

High time commitments. The work life balance is weighted very strongly toward work. However to be fair if you communicate personal needs managers will do their best to accommodate. The performance reviews are a forced curve so some great performers are reviewed as underperforming. Lack of transparency in the bonus system.

Pros

Care for employees. There is a true sense of care when you go through orientation. This can be both a place you can make a career with or as a great stepping stone into a job you may want. High turnover may mean faster promotion.

Cons

Maybe the lower starting salary and the hours you have to work during busy season.
