The advantage of working at an accounting firm is that if you do not plan to stay long-term and move to industry after two or three years, you will have many more interview opportunities than you would with only industry experience.
Additionally, at an accounting firm, you can handle the accounts of multiple clients and deal with various issues that companies encounter. This allows you to quickly develop your financial skills and ability to withstand pressure.
The disadvantages are that the working hours are too long (you often have to work overtime on holidays), the hourly wage is lower than at a beverage shop, and the number of overtime hours you can report is also restricted. People in the “hell department” often work overtime until the early hours of the morning.
