Ok, if you are a client serving employee

Pros

Great brand that will serve you well in your next role, good internal training for client serving people, decent earning potential for client servers, both client serving and non-client serving employees are seen by the outside world as experts in their field, some truly amazing people with whom to work - high character and very talented.

Cons

Weak leadership team in the MW - more interested in their own image than integrity, zero transparency across the organization, treat non-client servers as 2nd class citizens, arduous administrative burdens on all employees, the firm doesn't care about your experience if it occurred outside of the firm, difficult culture for new employees, very top down driven firm - most important programs come from the HQ (New York).

Pros

Great benefits, vacation pay, pension plans and company name to place on your resume

Cons

Long hours without overtime pay. Only tax professionals from administrative to managers would receive overtime pay. You have to be liked by management in order to be considered for promotion. They allow you to leave the firm in good standing and return at a higher level with higher pay. If you are terminated in good standing with severance pay, they allow you to return only if you are liked by management. The advertisements on work/life balance are falsified to recruit new employees from reputable colleges/universities.
