What insiders say about…
I go out on audits of businesses, mostly to perform testing and substantive procedures.
Reasonable hours, work in teams on a daily basis with supportive colleagues. Good level of socialising amongst colleagues of all levels. However, little interaction between partners and lower level employees
Two one-on-one interviews with online assessments such as reading, logical and numerical. Video recording of a 1 minute interview
You do have to work hard in this company, especially the Audit division. However there is a side of this that is very good for your development. I think it is essential to work hard if you want to progress your career. I still manage to not work too much over time.
The general training provided and CA training provided are priceless and therefore the salary is slightly low however the experiences that you have are also invaluable.
The social events and audit drinks are the best, as well as client and non-client lunches and social events. We also get awards for exceptional performance with monetary values attached that we are able to select gift vouchers for.
A majority of the managers and ADs are approachable and ready to give advice moving forward. Internal communication can be a little difficult when individuals are busy.
One week of tax training interstate for all graduates and weekly internal trainings
