Pros

You will surely get paid on time as per Australian pay rates law.

Cons

1. Not proper training during Income tax course and during work. You have to be fully self reliable with self study. 2. No work or very little working hours. On request you will get over pressured. Pay is hourly basis. 3. Theft work credit. File prepared by you/consultant is named/taken by office managers name. This will effect your bonus and if you are aim to become a tax agent, it will affect your work (BAS or tax return) experience. 4. Too much office politics. Unsolicited and gender biased comments from peers and seniors. Not in first year of joining.

Long Hours Low Pay

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Seasonal. Office Atmosphere. Good Comraderie.

Cons

Low low pay. Push hard on selling product. Will overload your calendar, extend your hours, and try to force you to work 6 days every week. Up to 12 hour days. The seasoned employees are commission based. Shamed if they don't meet the goals of the company. If your commissions don't reach the intended goals, then you are reduced to an hourly rate.
