Great work experience to have on your C.V... I recommend once you qualify as an accountant, move on!
Pros: Great work experience, high profile clients, good to have Big 4 experience on your C.V, good office culture, new offices, gym on site, subsidized canteen, they pay for your exams, give you generous time off for study leave, unpaid leave is an option, flexible with time off, good training programme, continuous professional development.
Cons: not a great work life balance, rarely working from the office, working on laptop on client site, different manager on each job, different team on each job, exam failure may result in severance of your training contract, managers favor some people and request them on their jobs each year leaving some staff idle, salary not that high considering the hours you work, you are just a number in a large organisation, very hierarchical.
