Audit is a place to build soft skills
Pros: - Exposure to business processes
- Opportunity to hone soft skills for team management, project management and client relationship management. Also trains you to be meticulous and have attention to details.
- Opportunity to build technical skills for logical reasoning and data analysis. 

Even if you do not have the passion for audit/accounting or the work itself, see it as a learning place to build the above skills. Not a lot of companies provide the opportunity for you to lead a team/project especially in the first few years in the job as fresh grad.
Cons: - No recognition is done for good efficient work. Most would get a 3/5 rating which ranges from people who do the bare minimum and have no issues to people who are efficient and produce quality work.
- Work life imbalance is inherent to the nature of the job.
- Managers seldom have interest in your career development and work life.
