Typical Big4 company - forget about work/life balance if you're in Assurance
Pros: Lots of internal instruments which now work pretty good. Most of your peers and subordinates are quite young (if you're not young - you're either a Director/Partner or in the wrong business) and mostly motivated.
Cons: No work/life balance whatsoever - though it's still a goal for the management, in practice trying to maintain work/life balance is hard, it's not really supported by mid-level management. Heavy time investment in coaching - in fact rarely successful (high turnover of low and mid-level staff)
