Pros

Great platform career advancement once you qualify. Good social scene within the company and a great way to progress from being a college graduate into a full time working professional.

Cons

Never valued as an employee, underpaid, overworked. I think that the big 4 have devised a very clever business model of getting the best and brightest college graduates, working them to the bone for 4 years and then they all run for the hills leaving them to keep only the ones who were complete slaves to the job and have no imagination or courage to change their circumstances.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
