Pros

Good company benefit, unit trip, peak treats

Cons

All cons depends on which manager you under, some manager especially senior manager, they don’t give guidance and supervision, when you ask also not bother to reply or never give you a firm answer. Always last minute only ask you to do something, and want it immediately + the thing originally needed or due soon. Can tell you in the midnight or early morning 6am to meet at office 9am which last night you OT late hope to get more sleep or reach office later. When you ask never provide you guidance or answer but after you do wrongly the drama start. I wonder why only manager can comments on staff, but staff can never give comments on manager. Being not reasonable, or too demanding. Ridiculous plotting time. Never respect to lower level of staff.

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
