Pros: Great Training Program--providing new staffs with necessary knowledge for their job
Knowledgeable Colleagues--most colleagues are CPAs or are on their ways to be CPAs, there will always be someone in the firm if you got a question during work
Challenging Engagements--engagements varies quite a bit, some are a bliss, others are quite challenging, but in a fun way.
Opportunity to Learn about Various Industries--the opportunity to get your hands on different clients' books are very valuable.
Cons: Overtime--in peak season, overtimes are almost mandatory, but are compensated.
Challenging engagements--depending on your colleagues, sometimes the collaboration is not very nice.
Turnover rate--around 40% people left during their first year in my office.
