Pros and cons of working at HLB Mann Judd
Pros
The work-life balance, the strong team culture, the ability to work on various clients and engagements and the emphasis placed on learning & development.
The people. Getting to work with partners and directors even at a graduate level. You feel you are doing meaningful work that is helping you develop your skills and progress your career.
The workplace culture is great. All the staff are extremely nice, helpful and expect a reasonable quality of work from you but are also always willing to sit down and work through something with you.
The people! We have got the most wholesome, friendliest and the nicest people you can find and that just helps so much especially when you are starting your first professional job. The tone at the top really does make a difference because this quality is from partners right through to the cadets.
The wide variety of clients that we have access to work with directly. I have also formed a bond with a number fellow employees at the firm and the strong staff culture has really assisted this.
Cons
Well for me it is the commute to the office. It takes me 1 hour each way.
Having to complete timesheets.
As a graduate when it is very busy or there isn't much work to do often you may have to watch company training videos.
We deal with some larger clients with strict deadlines which can put some pressure on delivering tasks.
