Great Experience
Pros: Ernst and Young provides a great opportunity to gain experience in a variety of business processes.  The compensation is comparable to other "Big 4" firms, and while the work load may be heavy, the experience that you gain is more than worth it.
Cons: The largest downside of a "Big 4" firm is of course the long hours.  However, as long as you are prepared for them going in to the job, they shouldn't come as a surprise.  Just deal with it, get the experience, and if you don't like it, leave.  There are always other opportunities out there.
