Pros

Flexible hours depending on nature of work. Location is convenient i.e near a shopping mall. Gym membership is good but if you are in audit, you may just use the gym membership for the shower facilities for late night shifts. Less so for other departments e.g Advisory

Cons

If you are in audit, be prepared to work longer hours compared to competitors - staff turnover is over the roof as a result of this. Competition is fierce by virtue of high staff volume and they are willing to say or do a lot of things to move up the ladder. Low to zero support from management in terms of morale and guidance especially if your superior is swamped with multiple engagements (some are just plain incapable though). A lot of politics going around across all functions. The Advisory functions are not as competitive as their competitors and their revenue model is the same as Audit - take in any clients as long as targets are met.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
