Pros

There is a path toward advancement, so if you're interested in putting in the long hours and sticking with it, you'll eventually be promoted. And that in and of itself is a pro, that's one of the only ones I can think of.

Cons

Worked at Andersen Tax in Boston, I really disliked it at the time. The company culture is very gossipy, a fair amount of the managers and directors were condescending, unnecessarily harsh etc. And trust me, that feeling is common among associates. There was a very high rate of turnover for the year I worked there.

Pros

good work life balance which is rare. No audit practice therefore tax dominate and controls direction of the firm.

Cons

Each office operates as its own Silo, incompetent staff, too much focus on admin and not on developing better skillsets.
