The work can be boring, you'll get asked "a quick little question" a lot by friends who know you are an accountant, you won't see your family during the winter if you are a tax preparer. And at the start you might not get paid a lot of money depending on what you do. |

40+ hours, sometimes you might have to work 60 - 80 hours a week. you have to know many rules, APB, GAAP, SFAS, IAB, and so on. these list of organizations set standards for accounting practices, so you have to know most of them in order to be an accountant.
but most of the time it's a rewarding field. |

Long hours and the need to be a "lifetime learner". The rules change and you are required to take continuing education so it is like being in school for the rest of your life. I disagree with the "not exciting work comment" - ANYTIME to talk to people about their money they can get quite emotional and it can get REALLY exciting (not always good excitement). The person that said you are not spontaneous is probably somewhat right - I'm always the one to remind my spouse how much something will cost instead of how fun it is - but I certainly don't think CPAs are nerds (OK - I might be biased with this one :-)) |

You are rather forced to associate with "Accountants" a lot. How's that for a con |

The downside to being an accountant - assuming that you are practicing publically - are that you are always on the clock (like any other service professional).
Your hours can be very long at times, and contrary to popular beleif you are generally thinking all of the time - which can be a huge energy drain.
If you are an internal accoutnant, many of the same things apply. Althouhg you are only serving one company and not an entire group of clients you still are SERVING the company. This requires you to analysis a variety of situations and determine the proper course of action - again thinging all of the time. |

you are a really boring person if you are an accountant
you will never again "fly by the seat of your pants"
you will always asses the risk before you make a leap which ultimately makes you utterly predictable. |
