Pros

1. Work with some amazingly passionate and intelligent people, it's a collegiate environment to work in full of like minded individuals 2. Diversity 3. Flexibility to work from home is particularly good for parents

Cons

1. Training is mediocre (aside from the CA and tax formal programs) and has shifted a lot to online training in recent years. 2. International opportunities can be limited - being in Australia we are often so far away from the rest of the world it is expensive to utilise Australians 3. Poor knowledge management - knowledge is often shared by individual connections rather than retaining reusable assets from each project to be shared

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

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.
