Pros

You just get the prestige of working at a Big4, nice on the resume. And that's what they use to suck you dry.

Cons

Salary, bonus, medical, 401K contribution match, hours (expect to work 16+ hours a day, even in June), ugly brown depressing office spaces, pretty much anything you can think of.

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.
