It's still public accounting

Pros

They're ahead of the game when it comes to technology and software especially with IT security. Definitely forward thinkers with an emphasis in learning and growth.

Cons

The hour requirements during tax season are ridiculous. No true process as each BoB has different preferences when it comes to work papers. Hard to get help from anyone so you're left to figure it out as with any public accounting firm. The only learning you do is being told something is wrong rather than taking the time to show you how.
