Does the firm offer any support in  passing the CPA exam?

The first thing they provide is Micromash which is a computer program which generates questions to help you practice for the exam. In addition, if you pass the exam within certain time frames you get nice bonuses. They also try to accommodate your schedule if you need time off to study, though it's not always feasible and really depends on the time of year. At Peat Marwick there is an emphasis on passing early, you're required to have a CPA before you become a manager so they don't want you running around trying to pass the exam at the last minute right before you become a manager.
