Assurance
Pros: Most of the people are great. You learn a tremendous amount about a lot of different industries and how businesses are profitable. If you get good clients then the work can be pretty interesting as each client has unique issues that the firm has to tackle.  It's also a great resume builder because everyone knows what great work ethic someone coming out of a Big 4 public accounting firm must have.
Cons: No work/life balance, there is an overwhelming feeling that you are always replaceable, the longer you stay the more pigeon-holed you are into a corporate accounting role. The list goes on. Unless you're dying to become a partner there's no point in staying past senior 1 year if you are leaving for a great opportunity..
