Pros

International and global opportunities. Exposure to wide range of business entities and practices. Some really great people are there. Some wide ranging tools and learning opportunities available.

Cons

Edmonton office is severely dysfunctional. Corporate values are talked about but the reality is that every Partner operates their own little personal fiefdom. No standards, no process consistency. Very unsupportive of personality.

Pros

-Young peer group -Tax free salary -Island living -Access to Travel in the region

Cons

-Crazy hours -An unacceptable amount of pressure is placed on supervisors and assistant managers to complete work with little guidance and support from management and been made accountable when unsurprisingly the work cannot be completed -Managers often do not have the experience to competently manage the project -HR has been known to gossip openly about others performances in the elevator -There have been cases whereby people have been fired on the spot, had visas revoked and forced to leave island. -You are locked into the job, there have been instances of partners blocking transfers and phoning other employers on the island to prohibit movement out the firm -Extremely high turnover of staff

Pros

Good name to have on your CV. Learn professionalism. Lots of young people your own age there. If you want to be an accountant best to start in the Big 4.

Cons

Crazy hours, so crazy I a once fit and healthy man was getting sick. Bullying exists in the firm which upper management fail to deal with.
