Pros
Family oriented, and everybody knows everybody. The tax software is used by so many, you have good exit options It's tradition based, and it has a long history Small firm, really aggressive gossiping - but that's any firm The work could easily just be a normal 8-5 job. It's not the most public accounting experience you'll get here.
Kontras
The one thing I hated, was that businesses even down the street from us, had no idea what this firm was, how to pronounce it, or what it did. People work super hard in school and put in the hours to be in public accounting, but you don't get recognition for it in the accounting community. I feel like if I just tried harder, I could've gotten into a bigger firm and live a better life Sometimes it seems fake, because there's a handful of minorities of each race - like they are covering their butts or something. I've heard of people getting made fun of their race sometimes, but it never happened to me.
