Great learning ground
Pros: Basic tax concepts were drilled from the start. Style there was not an overly aggressive approach which suited me well (as compared to another of a Big 4 firm I worked with after my graduation). 

Though working hours were long (especially for those more juniors) but management do not advocate face-timing.  

Feedbacks given to staff were timely (adhered to the twice a year so that staff can improve before the final appraisal session under the other Big 4 which the appraisal sessions were 'sharing' sessions) and constructive.
Cons: Management (i.e. partners) instead of seeking growth as a department/team were more interested in their individual KPIs to please their own bosses. Infighting between partners spillover to the managers/seniors and cliques begin to form.
