Pros

This firm has a solid reputation and attracts a wide variety of clients in different industries and of different sizes Starting out at this firm will look great on your resume and open up a lot of doors, and you will receive full study support for your CA

Cons

It can be a bit of a popularity contest, which can effect your opportunities to be promoted There is very little interaction between partners and managers and the rest of the firm. The firm needs to adopt a more open door policy to encourage interaction, communication and a flow of ideas.

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.
