Unimpressive middle management
Pros: It is a big company, with lots of smart young people. If you want to move to a different city, or even country, its likely that you could just transfer to a different office. Their national and global network is really great.
Cons: Middle management is very poor. The hours are long and work-life balance is pretty non-existent, so many people leave before they get promoted to a managerial position.  The managers are not the  people who are the best fit for the position, but  just who have stuck around long enough to make their way up the corporate ladder. This has a very strong negative effect on team dynamics and projects.

Also, in terms of salary, they do a very poor job of compensating for cost of living. I happened to be in San Francisco, the most expensive city in the country, and I know that I was making the same as people who started  in states like Florida, where cost of living is substantially lower. Also, in comparison to other Big Four accounting firms, it appeared to be quite a bit lower.
