Pros and cons of working at Grant Thornton Australia
Pros
The people, culture and work-life balance.
Grant Thornton is truly an exceptional place to work. The firm really values diversity and inclusivity, and actively supports various charities.
The flexibility of home and office.
Exposure to a number of types of clients, good structure, really nice offices, good culture, other associates always ready to give you a hand.
9 day working fortnights during quiet periods has been amazing. It helps incentivise me to finish my work earlier so I can get time off.
Cons
It seems that there is not much cross over between different service lines.
Sometimes you are required to work after hours.
Sometimes you will need to visit the client that is quite far away.
While the starting salary may be lower, the potential for growth and advancement is promising.
Lots of online training modules to complete at the beginning.
