Audit Associate
Pros: -Good online learning tools.
-Regular company wide events to optimize organizational networking.
-The NYC office had great views with best outer seats typically reserved for the more junior staff.
-Fairly good open door policy.
Cons: Perhaps this is true for most public accounting firms but;
-Not a great place for career changers with more advanced education, experience and skill sets.  What's needed are bodies to run excel numbers and log in billing hours.  Most of the work will be automated in a few years.  
-Poor compensation, especially for candidates who need work sponsorships.  Somewhat of a sweat shop environment.
-Much more competitive than collaborative environment with minimal on the job training / mentoring.
-Better for people who thrive under a "stick" approach rather than a "carrot" approach.
