Pros
A supportive, inclusive and relaxed environment, which is helpful for trainees new to accounting. Study support with external training providers to help complete professional qualifications. Job autonomy and ability to really get stuck in, which helps with learning at a greater pace. Management supportive of employees and happy to step in when faced with challenging clients. Always looking to adopt new tech, processes and ideas, while being receptive to these suggestions coming from below.
Cons
Occasional bad line management, which ought to have been dealt with faster. As the company has grown, management have become less supportive of trainees carving out niches based on particular interests developed during training. Limited opportunities near the end of training contract and post qualification, which led to seeking opportunities elsewhere.
