Experience level: Junior

Experienced Associate
Pros: Great Type A people that strives for you to achieve better as they pushes you hard to perform. Quality people to learn from. I was on the Private Company Services in Audit so it gave a small Company feel in an Int'l firm. Great Big 4 firm to put on you resume. Keeps a good job at keeping you current with Accouning trends and with you CPE. Go to get a Big 4 name on your resume. It will pay off once you leave.
Cons: Like all Big 4 firms the hours are long in busy season with not enough. The experience can differ greatly depending on your Senior and Manager. When I started I through 4 Busy Season engagements (almost an entire Busy Season) before working with an Actual Senior. I had "Acting Seniors" and Int'l Seniors during during that time. Often times you find yourself dealing with 2 engagements at a time as an Experienced Assoc or 3-4 as a Senior. The PCS Audit Team is very gossipy, even at the Partner level.
