Experienced Audit Staff
Pros: 1. Steep learning curve: You will be expected to know a lot with minimal to NO guidance. Training sessions are just there to please HR with no actual knowledge being imparted. This is a plus because somehow the best employees end up self-learning and excel.

2. Assistant Managers and below are more humble and friendly. Some are willing to take time to teach new staff who have no experience.
Cons: 1. Promotions and ratings are very biased. Some under-performing staff were promoted consistently due to having political connections. Some staff who delivered quality work in a timely manner get ignored simply because they are deemed "replaceable".

2. Job scope is highly inaccurate. You are expected to perform AUDIT work. Yet, somehow managers take advantage of staff below them to do ADVISORY and work that do not appear in the job scope.

3. Those holding positions above Assistant Managers often refuse to even talk to low-leveled staff and this often creates a lag between reviewing work and work done. This also causes new staff to be demotivated and often under perform.

4. Human Resources somehow do not value audit staff. They are often ignored and sometimes the leave system has problems as HR leave days and audit booking days could clash.
