Pros
- Opportunities to work on different projects once every few months. Some very interesting wins and some not-so-exciting work - Easy access to subject matter experts and learning resources/events - Great international brand - Big bunch of peers in audit - good group of friends to take you through your early years
Cons
- Total comp packages are hardly competitive despite regular assurances from HR and dept news of revenues making huge YOY jumps (a slap in the face for the rank-and-file) - Too broad a range of backgrounds for hires, from top-class grads from great universities to people with questionable qualifications from overseas universities (and dare I say, distance-learning programs + some lame work experience) - Live with the lousy comps (at least until SM level) or leave - there are many others willing to take your place. Probably best to take this as a transitional place to a more lucrative future - Management scrimps and saves on everything employee-related - very lousy or paid pantry snacks, very difficult claims process for employee welfare expenses, partners 'encourage' bus/train to client sites, yearly bonus factors not moving despite great business improvement
