Pros

The unlimited snacks and company-paid meals during busy season. Also, the relaxed dress code during the two busy seasons in the year.

Cons

The office I worked in was so micro-managed that people were in constant fear of their jobs. If you're not a favorite of management you will likely be placed on a PIP. They did this several times. If that happens, quit or find a job before the termination date. This office changes rules constantly and expects the employees to be puppets and mindreaders! Beware of harassment being overlooked by management. The recognition program is a joke!! It totally perpetuates favoritism and not the true efforts of employees who put in long hours and work on projects. Communication is not clear and very inconsistent with the over-worked and frustrated managers and directors. Glad I up and quit and found a nicer place to work.

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.
