Pros

Friendly managers and colleague. One of the audit director is friendly and willing to teach.

Cons

Heavy workload due to lack of manpower. Low salary paid and no annual increment for the year. No annual company dinner/no bonding activities, staff have to bear own cost to organise activities. No bonus or AWS and only KPI achievement with unfair job allocation. Management will keep on mentioned the cashflows problem of the company. Management overpromise client without discussing with staff or understand the whole audit job's situation first and staff unable to finish the assignment within the promised period, the staff is needed to give apologise by him/herself to client. Lack of management support.

Pros

I have been to 3 firms, including one big4, and 2 mid tiers for the past 6 years. I must say that this is the firm that really treat staff better versus my last three firms. I always have issue managing the team especially those work from home in my previous firms but NLA DFK management understands the challenges and have various system & tools to assist the manager & staff. I must say those really work hard are rewarded and it’s more of levelled playing field and easier for me as superior to monitor, also for staff to prove of work done and rewarded. The management is supportive and knowledgeable, knowing what’s the issue and always offer solutions. Compared with my previous firms, this was either ignored or pushed away. I am glad that after going through three firms, finally find one that fit me !

Cons

Working remotes not able to see colleague often but it offset with the ease of work from home and save on transport & time
