Associate RE Accountant
Pros
-They are hiring like gangbusters right now. It is extremely easy to get a job
Cons
-Very low pay for the accounting industry -Work is dull and mind-numbing -The benefits package is very poor. 401k match and medical/dental are laughable. Very little vacation time and there is no alloted sick time. You are viewed as lazy and a burden to your coworkers if you take vacation time. -Many managers have no talent in managing people (and have no interest in changing). They just wanted the pay raise -Very little professional development opportunities -Upward mobility is EXTREMELY slow. Promotions are often based on popularity rather than performance -My manager was new and didn't know the systems (and was very slow to learn). Other seniors and managers were not willing to step in to help -The "point system" of rating property difficulty is totally inaccurate.
