      Pros

      Lots of PTO (5 weeks) but with all the hours worked during busy season it evens out. Early leave on Fridays during the summer. Decent perks (i.e. summer outings, free gifts and food, yearly training in Orlando or other parts of the country, etc.) Some freedom to come in late or leave early and get up an go out for walks/coffee breaks. Work from home a few times a year. Locations all over the country and world so transfers are not so hard. Necessary to get good accounting jobs in the private world. Almost every place prefers Big 4 experience.

      Cons

      Busy season = no life. Really need to get your CPA to make it up the ladder. Too many administrative things need to be done in addition to your actual job.

      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.
