Change of management has made a big difference

Business Outlook

Pros

A nice place to work in Canberra - good alternative to the big 4, less of a pressure cooker and not as big so you get more visibility and access to better projects and experience when you're more junior. It's still a global firm though so it kind of has a local feel but big firm infrastructure and support. The change in local management has made the culture and environment better recently.

Cons

What solution you work in will likely dictate how satisfying your job will be - we're stronger in some areas with deeper expertise than others

It’s great to know that recent leadership changes have had a positive impact! We acknowledge that different solutions offer varying experiences, and we appreciate your feedback as we continue strengthening expertise across all areas. Thank you for sharing your perspective!
