Pros

The company is hybrid/remote depending on the situation/person. At a certain point this position becomes muscle memory and you don't really have to think about what you're doing.

Cons

Partners and associates alike treat the audit staff like they are disposable. HR is rude and condescending. If audit admin make a mistake it is the end of the world, but if higher ups make a mistake it's just a "woopsie". They act like you need to kiss the ground they walk on. Management is not great. Their training program is frustrating and not properly carried out, so when the trainee seems to be taking a little longer to pick up the material than they expect they are belittled and talked down to. Audit Admin do not stick around for very long. The turnaround for this job is known and the company has not made changes to hold onto their audit admin staff.
