Learn a lot, great exit opportunities, but terrible work-life balance.
Pros: The below is related to Core Assurance:
- Bonus for getting CPA license: $6,000 + all expenses incurred related to obtaining CPA +5,000 = roughly $11,000 of extra comp not included in salary figure above.
- Great culture around pushing yourself to learn more and get out of your comfort zone
-Major emphasis on learning digital skills (i.e., Alteryx, UiPath, PowerBI) and they provide all the resources/time to do so
-Surrounded by very dedicated, driven, talented people 
- In my experience, I have at least one recruiter a week reach out about a job opportunity post big-4. More often than not, I receive multiple job opportunities via LinkedIn every week
Cons: -Despite what the recruiters say, this is a very intense and time-intensive job. Definitely not 9-5 (but who honestly thought Big-4 audit was?) Busy season is the most intense experience I've ever had, and probably ever will have. But on the flip side, that's why you sign up - to have those crazy experiences with very dedicated, driven individuals who are all looking to better themselves. Moral of the story, if your not looking to hustle, this job is definitely not for you.
