      Pros

      My coworkers are supportive and easy to work with, and I feel that my salary reflects the work I do.

      Cons

      One challenge I consistently face is managing tight deadlines during the audit peak period, which often requires extended working hours. While this is expected in the industry, it can be demanding and requires strong time management and resilience.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      quick growth in terms of skills, good to leave immediately once you get it.

      Cons

      pay is 1/3 lower than the street average, workload is the same! Management forced people to work in office for 4 days, with low pay/low food reimbursement, bad office environment, they are asking too much and deploying people!
