Pros

Good benefits, Healthcare, Maternity and Paternity leave.

Cons

They are cutting bonuses for lower level employees, but not manager or above!! They do NOT pay market rate for positions at all, they are at the lower end of the averages. Which is why they are not getting top talent.

Pros

-autonomy and you get to make your own schedule 95% of the time -flexible schedule. no hard beginning or ending time each day -get your work done on time and you will rarely hear from your manager -you get to keep all of the frequent flyer miles and hotel points -9 paid holidays a year, plus 2 floating holidays -3 weeks paid vacation a year -opportunity to see many different parts of the US on their dime -potential for bonus -other auditors are nice and willing to answer questions

Cons

-way too many custom audit forms for various clients; it’s extremely daunting in the beginning, even for the most experienced auditor. -several managers with no soft skills, but that is all they preach to the auditors in the field. -accounting that loves to reject expense reports repeatedly for various reasons. -IT issues are a regular occurrence during an audit. -high auditor turnover rate, in part due to being underpaid overall for the amount of travel and last minute “special requests” that never end. -rarely meeting monthly budget due to ALWAYS being understaffed, so the auditors that do stick around are expected to work extra to close the gap. This is a never ending issue. -frequent travel by plane, sometimes with a decent amount of notice so you can plan your personal life, but sometimes not. -being on salary instead of hourly (see two previous comments). -seemingly arbitrary way they decide how much bonus you will get, if any. -bonus only paid once a year -lack of concern for auditor safety while traveling through extreme weather conditions -work/life balance
