Pros

Offer discounts on gym memberships, etc.

Cons

Former admin asst at KPMG with nothing good to say about the company. Unfortunately, I was pigeon-holed into an admin position with no room for upward mobility. Bonus structure works only if you are in a client facing role. Admins do not get over 1% raise. The review/performance management process is not effective if you are not within a client facing role. No work/life balance.

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.
