Great work-life balance for a great career, but if you want more than great, look elsewhere
Pros: They actually understand the meaning of the work-life balance. Taking time off for appointments, important occasions etc. is not a problem. Most areas offer a decent training programme, allowing employees to attain CIMA or ACA whilst working for the firm, with paid time off.
Cons: The rewards are not sufficient for junior staff. Decent salaries only really materialise much higher up the firm. In audit, there is a bottom up approach to much of the work. Long hours are expected doing menial tasks.
