Good place to start a career in audit/accounting
Pros: They will recruit you and put you on a fast learning track. You will learn a lot through direct practice. You will be expected to be willing and able to learn fast and to be a good team player who can take ownership of the tasks. You get a chance to take a look at the way things are done in various industries, thus making you learn a lot.
Cons: Expect long hours in the busy season. Sometimes jobs may pop-up in off-busy season and you can be expected to postpone your vacation. Sometimes the level of stress you experience, highly depends on the level of stress of the people above you. 
Promotion process is highly bureaucratic, but somehow still ends in subjective evaluations and in political promotions.  Expect to do lots of administrative work which can increase burden especially in the busy season when you are overloaded with the client work.
