Pros

Experience at big 4 looks good on your resume; lots of on the job training. In house training is decent.

Cons

The Cleveland office is unfortunately an old boy's club. Most of the male partners come from uneducated blue collar families & no nothing outside of FASBs or Tax Code. As a female I couldn't wait to get out of there. Many of the male partners regularly hit on the much younger females. Lots of pressure to get everything done perfectly & done quickly. Lots of favoritism on the better jobs and lots of travel.

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.
