Pros: - ACA is a pretty good qualification
- Kevin Ellis seems to be doing a good job about boosting employee morale at the moment
- Big4 open experiences to opportunities (if you're in the 1980s)
Cons: - It is almost impossible to get holidays approved despite having not booked to any projects for the requested holidays. The process is a bureaucratic mess. 
- I personally experience racial discrimination. Some of my peers did not take me seriously because english is not my first language. There are strong feelings against immigrants from some of the senior people. These seniors would perceive any mistakes you made regardless of its severity is due to not having english as your first language. 
- Managers do not care about your personal development and often, ignored.
- Subsistence offered has always been awful. I was offered a mouldy cake once. 
- Social events are dull, grim, and repetitive. The events only cater to those who drink a lot. However, there are a good number of staff who does not drink at all due to personal/religious reasons which is ignored.
- Managers do not care about your personal development.
- Audit is an extremely specific knowledge and capabilities. If you take this route too long, you will be an auditor for life which is something that any person with an ounce of intelligence would avoid.
- There are a lot of bright people, although the majority of them has now left and good for them!
-  Despite having business acumen as one of their values, the staff at times do not possess any commercial knowledge outside of auditing. Sometimes, they don't even know any news about audit scandal. One senior did not know anything about Carillion. 
- Most people cannot separate personal and professional life. At times, their personal life affect their work and how they communicate with their peers.
