Pros
Experience of working with highly motivated and competent people and with a diversity of clients that enhances and refines your accounting, business and soft skills
Cons
No appreciation for family life. The Partner mantra is "Firm First" before any other priority. There are well known Deloitte work place customization activities, but those initiatives are not typically or widely available to those who are on the more aggressive partner track. The firm also considers itself a "Career Enhancer" rather than a "Career Destination" meaning it doesn't necessarily view itself as a place where people should spend their entire career, rather its a stepping stone. I think this view is currently accurate but would prefer to see initiatives to embrace the "Career Destination" path.
