Archaic accountancy firm.

Pros

Flexible working, sort of. There is a social twice a year.

Cons

The offices are like a library and people don't talk. You are not allowed to listen to music unless you clear with your manager that you are going into "do not disturb mode". There is little work to do and the firm does not tender for more work. The positive Glassdoor reviews were most likely written by the partners and are not representative of the offices. You are forced to clockwatch and enter timesheets which are looked over by management all the time. Unnecessary pressure on employees.

Boring place to work

Recommend
CEO approval
Business outlook

Pros

Well organised - HR book your training in so you don't have to do anything - remuneration reviews and tough appraisals so something to try and achieve. Competitive salaries.

Cons

Extremely boring place to work - stereotypical accountancy firm - everyone is pretty anti-social. If you are a trainee - you are expected to kill yourself with work - no-one really talks. If you fail an exam twice you will be fired straight away. Managers are judgemental and if they take a dislike to you - will make your life a misery instead of trying to support you. If you are a typical number cruncher with no personality - you will enjoy working here.
