      Pros

      The only pro is the experience if you can bear the misery

      Cons

      Terrible Company Culture, team I worked with from the partner down was completely miserable making the audit unbearable. Managers only focus on large clients, don't care about smaller audits. Managers were very unhelpful and always left at 5 during busy season.

      Pros

      It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

      Cons

      Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
