Great Starting Point
Pros: EY attracts great people - I have made lots of close friends.  Company invests in annual training covering various technologies.  International opportunities are there.  Leadership is very good about inquiring on overall happiness of practice and helping people seek opportunities that are in line with their personal goals.  I would highly recommend this position to someone who enjoys accounting but doesn't want the crazy Assurance hours.  It's also easier to transition out of audit because we get IT experience.
Cons: Work-life balance, busy season, monotonous work.  Some people love it, I'm not one of them.  However, I have stayed because it really has been a good place to start a career and the skills I have gained are versatile and marketable.
