HR team who smiles in your face when they need something from you, but ignore or ask you to wait when you need something from them. So I would describe them to be the type that does the bare minimum. But of course, they work hard when the CEO needs something from them. The difference is drastic. Basically they do things that only benefit themselves and treat you differently based on your rank. Severely understaffed, causing you to have a steep learning curve. Probably less than 8 seniors left in the company the last time I checked, so it is very common for associates to have to carry the entire engagement. Expect neverending backlogs and mostly cannot claim cab. Many Malaysians (from A1s to managers) so don't be surprised if your leave application is rejected. Severely underpaid. 2.6k for private uni, 2.8k for local uni. Yearly pay rise/promotion not guaranteed. Ridiculous probation + notice period. From your first day of work, you have to bear with it for about 1 year before you can leave. The penalty is a few months' salaries. Everyone knows this so be prepared to be arrowed by managers and seniors to take on unpleasant engagements or tasks. And if a company has such long notice periods, you know how many people must have left within a few months of working previously. You are expected to come in on time at 9am, but nobody dares to leave on time at 6pm. OT pay is non-existent. Even if you leave late, some staff even go home to continue their work. If you are online at home, when the manager or partner goes online to check-in or review, they will be under the impression that you are working too even if it is like 3am, and be glad about it. So yeah culture isn't that great. Audit is not a glamorous industry but it is the best opportunity for anyone to gain valuable experience especially when starting out in the accounting industry. But that being said, might as well go to a bigger and more well-known company i.e. Big Four and be compensated more as an auditor. Better resume for the future as well.

- Your Client is always right. Your Boss is always right. Sorry sorry, I am always at the wrong. Also, Cleaning Auntie is always right. - If you are a new comer, you got to overcome the established oligarchs (ppl that stay in the firm for too long) that have favorable negotiation of manpower and projects. But if you stay long enough, you will join them to deny favorable resources to new joined managers. - Don't you love it that your performance (Nov - April 20X1) is only assessed 9 months later (Oct - Nov 20X1) , then the bonus is only paid out 12-15 months later (Mar & June 20X2). - Some audit procedures is unproductive, non-value adding checklist filling exercise that make staff lose focus on what is critical or important. Using too much resources chasing small details that is of little value to the audit process. - "We take this opportunity to thank you for your valuable contribution to the Company" is the only personal level appreciation that management will ever show (annually once)
