Vantaggi

Svantaggi
Raises are based entirely on exam progress. No raises or bonuses will be given for promotions. Work/life balance is non-existent. Working hours are dependent entirely on which clients you are randomly assigned to -- some people will have very stead workflow, others will be working at all hours of the night, weekends and holidays. If you are assigned to more demanding clients, you may be given little to no warning of when your personal plans will be overtaken by a project. Not willing to allow for rotation of business groups dependent on interest of the employee
