Pros

Best training possible for accounting professionals bar none. There is tremendous on the job training and great formal training at least once per on emerging financial issues. The benefits package is the best, including 20 vacation days after 3 years of employment, generous 401K plan, health care, wellness center, child care, you name they pretty much have it.

Cons

Pay is good but less than in industry. It is difficult to fire poor performers. The meager bonus plan can be subjective.
