Pros

There really aren't any (had to make this longer to fit the minimum criteria!).

Cons

I'm writing the cons to the words of "Escape", well the chorus anyway..... If you like Pina Coladas - then you'll be dissapointed by the 'free bar' as it only has cheap beer, and isn't free really as you're underpaid to make up for it. And gettin caught in the rain - then you'll enjoy the benefits of a 'roof top bar' in Manchester. Great perk if you think about it! Honestly why bother! If you're not into yoga - then you won't get much from the 'extensive' wellbeing programme such as yoga on the aforementioned roof top bar. It's a token gesture anyway, make sure you get those month end invoices out for thr work that hasn't been done. Got to hit those made up targets. If you have half a brain - well you could end up as a 'director', the 'Managing Partner' doesn't like too much of a challenge to his authority. Just enable him and turn a blind eye to his petulant rants at senior staff trying their best to meet client work/demands. If you like makin love at midnight - then you'll fit right in. Thats the time you'll be getting home to your partner anyway. In the dunes of the cape - Apparently you can now take some sort of flexible work/holiday time. Good luck with that! Then I'm the love that you've looked for - I'll be honest I'm struggling with this one! Write to me and escape - Get tose letters into whatever recruitment agent you can find asap. Get out. Trust me. Everyone who has has never looked back.

Pros

Free bar in each office

Cons

Bad pay with worse governance, expected to get work completed in unrealistic deadlines without being supported and expected to work in own time to get the work done. There are historical accounting errors based on under qualified people being hired which means much longer is required on the job. When senior managers come to the office, there’s a bravado that’s put on specifically for them (why hide what the firm’s like?). There’s been such little change over the years despite years of people writing negative reviews and offering healthy suggestions to the business. Staff are heard but ignored. A weekly happiness score is sent to staff but if you score low, you’re seen to be the problem. When you discuss what can be done to improve (ie hire staff to support/ getting paid for hours worked) nothing is done to change the problem. High focus on non-accounting related work that staff are expected to attend.
