Great place to start but not to end
Pros: 1. Friendly people (the team that I worked with was cheerful and boost the team spirit)
2. Great exposure for the 1st 2 - 3 years, after that depends on the routine unless you're doing different engagements
3. 1-week firm holiday in September (due to Covid-19 it was cancelled in 2020 but hopefully continues 2021 onwards)
4. Inter-audit from games (competitive games with other big 4s, medium and small audit firms) - ie. badminton, football, snooker and even e-games DOTA 2
5. Salary is average compared to other audit firms
Cons: 1. The working environment solely depends on bosses, if the engagement is heavy and boss expectations are higher then it's going to be very difficult.
2. Resources allocated to a job diminish year by year which gives hard time for the team to work around the timeline
3. Work-life balance mostly not achievable and that's even for the non-peak period for some jobs
4. Many seniors here get bored as there are no job rotation.
