Pros

Great vacation time (Paid) Great Medical Benefits If you enjoy working in groups, very enjoyable work atmosphere Clear track for advancement Early opportunity for leadership oppourtunity

Cons

Long hours, and not only during "busy season", expect an average of 50-60 hour weeks, with the worst of them being close 100 hour weeks. Pay is decent for someone coming out of college, but don't calculate your wage per hour, it may be discouraging.

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.
