Grow fast through long working hours
Pros: In KPMG HK office here, particularly in audit division, it's easy to get promoted (nearly 99.9%) coz there's always lack of personnel. 

It's a good way to learn and get wide exposures, particularly for fresh graduates who would like to go industry after get CPA qualified.
Cons: The working hours is extremely long .... During peak seasons, i used to work til 2-4 am in the morning for 2 months, and then go work at 9 am next day.. no weekend as well. !! And only 3 days OT for that 2 months!

The problem of KPMG HK office is the turnover rate is very high. so there's always lack of personnel. meanwhile, the audit fee is fixed rather than charged by hour, due to the fierce competition among big four companies in HK.
