Great to start a career
Pros: Intelligent People
Interesting work
Brand name
International opportunities

I had a great time during my stint - lots of opportunities for learning and development, great place for someone who is self-motivated and doesnt mind working longer hours than the traditional 9-5 and is interested in harnessing the global network the firm has.
Cons: Bureaucratic
Lots of paperwork and administrative work

I didnt enjoy spending too much time on paperwork that was supplementary to the engagement at hand. I also found myself making too many edits and not getting to create new work as much as possible. there is less room for creativity at the entry level but I would say the opportunity to come up with creative ideas increases with responsibility, especially in advisory and tax.
