Pros: The work is challenging and presents great learning opportunities. We get a broad exposure to different issues
as well as opportunities to take on more responsibilities early in one's career.
Cons: During busier times there's a distinct lack of respect for personal time and people. Management would give negative feedback to individuals in front of the rest of the group. Promotion opportunities and pay is based on personality and how much income needs to be retained for the partners so senior accountants can see themselves making little more than what they did as an intern. Also because of these reasons the practice becomes severely understaffed.
