Typical of any "Big Four" Firm
Pros: Good place to work for the most part; salary very competitive; flexibility to work from home when possible; exposure to many companies in many a variety of industries; opportunity to meet and work with good people and develop lasting relationships.
Cons: A few too many "Type A's"; salaries a little too over the top for new college hires, setting them off on expecting to make a lot more with little experience when they're "stolen" from the Big Four; work/life balance is tough depending on luck of draw (what client you get assigned to and where they are located); pressure, especially at higher levels, to identify new business opportunities (bring in more business); not much room for growth (no sub-levels of positions) - staff, senior, manager.
