Pros

Fast-paced, detail-oriented environment – great for developing sharp organisational and accuracy skills. Inclusive and friendly atmosphere in the Glasgow office, with strong service-line focus. Excellent benefits and perks, contributing to overall job satisfaction. Frequent social events and team-building activities foster a sense of community. "Work hard, play hard" culture keeps the role engaging and energised. Opportunities to build relationships with senior leadership – even the CEO will know your name. Lots of training resources to develop skills and advance your career. Proactivity is encouraged and rewarded, giving scope to take ownership of your work. Very strong diversity & inclusion

Cons

High-pressure environment – constant fast pace may be stressful for some. Partners can be demanding; effective communication style is crucial. Office politics can impact morale. Communication gaps at times between teams or leadership. Team experience varies – supportiveness depends heavily on manager and division. Limited opportunities to progress your career. Unclear bonus requirements
