Pros

Great people in my entry class, however, I did feel a division between Associate, Senior Associates, Directors, etc.

Cons

Very busy during the busy season and very slow outside of the busy season. If you are hired as an associate you are mostly, if not entirely doing accounting work. There are not many opportunities for consulting work at entry level.

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.
