Pros

You get exposure to a lot of different service lines. They have free coffee and drinks. They have a number of parties.

Cons

HR is a joke, it takes months to get anything done with them. Training is very sub-par and not at the level of most firms their size. Managers get away with a lot that is borderline inappropriate. It's a very party oriented office. It tries to be like the big four but lacks the structure and clients. Staff and seniors are forced to work over 100 hours per week in busy season and no one cares, in fact its encouraged.

Pros

good work life balance which is rare. No audit practice therefore tax dominate and controls direction of the firm.

Cons

Each office operates as its own Silo, incompetent staff, too much focus on admin and not on developing better skillsets.
