It depends. If you work full time for a company, it will be 40 hours per week, plus overtime around tax time and at the end of the year.
However, you can also work part-time for small companies -- on an "as needed" basis. Also, you can pick up extra hours doing tax returns in April.
In other words, it really depends on your specialty and what you want to do.

depends..an accountant doesn't have to be in the public sector (typical CPA). You can be a controller for a company and not have unreasonable hours...
But, public accountants? 70-100 hours from January 15-April 15 and 40 hours for rest of year.

Tax time: 80 - 100 hours a week.
Rest of year: Pretty much up to you.

My cousin just got a job in that field. He works from 8am to 7pm MON TO SAT. I guess this must be their busy time.
