Pros

Solid reputation and excellent resume builder. A respected employer within the accounting industry. Phenomenal paternity benefits. Opportunities to travel and connect with peers throughout the country. No micro-management. Huge responsibilities from day one. Great launch to your career.

Cons

Your first 5 years are spent making virtually minimum wage from an hourly standpoint. 80 work weeks are not unusual. Average work week is probably about 55 hours. Family or Firm becomes the choice you'll need to make no matter what they say about "work-life" balance. It's just the nature of public accounting firms.

Pros

The allow me flexibility to be with my family. I can come and go as I please as long as I get in the hours and get the job done at the end of the day. Most managers are down to earth and want to help you succeed.

Cons

You can work some long hours during your busy season. The office is very quiet and not much socializing during they day. There are also some very competitive people looking out for only themselves.

Pros

It is a great place to start a career in finance/accounting since they invest so heavily in training and employee learning. A large part of what they do is investing in staff in order to build them up.

Cons

Upon reaching the senior/manager/senion manager level, promotions and significant raises become increasingly difficult to attain. There is a highly structured, almost military-esque, promotion system which is nearly impossible to work your way past.
