It has its pros and cons
Pros: The firm offers 28 days paid vacation including PTO days, firm holidays, and personal days. I haven't had any trouble taking time off for vacation, but I know a lot of people do. I work with smart people at the firm and I like that. My goal is to learn and the learning curve is very steep.
Cons: The hours are terrible. We work crazy hours year-round. The idea of "busy season" isn't true, its crazy busy all year with quarterly filings, year-ends, off year-ends, comfort letter filings, etc. The work is pretty dull and gets repetitive.
