Pros

Benefits, coworkers, work from home for now

Cons

This job is heavy client facing. Not one or two but easily 10 plus. To keep up, you will have to work 45+ hours a week and if you don't then they will blame you for it. The client is always right and DAs are often the scape goat. This company was taken over by Alight but you will see similar posts of ridiculous work expectations under Hodges Mace. Training is even more terrible and culture is bad. Turnover is high and people are leaving or plan on leaving soon. Even veterans ( which is sadly 3 or 4 years) are leaving. Q4 is demanding season for DAs and there is no PTO for Thanksgiving or Christmas. There is no reason to come here and take on this stress.

Stale and depressing

Pros

Local team is great, but we're bogged down with bureaucracy and bad decisions by global all the time.

Cons

Constantly told that people matter ( one of the company's values ) but we are just treated like a number. We use too many systems and they are all configured poorly. To much paperwork and bureaucracy. Nobody in America cares about the Australian office. Important business functions are outsourced to low cost countries and people who are quite junior and don't understand finance, IT or HR. Global IT is a nightmare. Laptops are low cost and bogged down with bloatware and draconian security settings. We have to use slow VPN for email and calendar and it often drops out.

Going Downhill

Pros

Flexibility, can work remote. Do not work here unless you need this or it is a big priority for you. Some good people work here

Cons

Tons of layoffs, employees that have been working for the company for a long time have been laid off. A lot of cost cutting. Big focus on moving to offshore resources. Many client team members do not have a good understanding of the system which causes a lot of frustration and rework. Benefits and pay are mediocre. Employees are not an asset and they will not hesitate to fire/layoff.
