      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.

      Pros

      Flexible availability. Path for promotion is obvious and quantified.

      Cons

      Bonus/commission it is based on level and sales so is low in states without a state tax form. Hourly wage comes out of bonus. Pressure to sell items that don't add to your commission. They push customer surveys but you can be penalized if someone complains about the company, price, amount of emails etc even though you have no control. Some employees are frustratingly low quality and you will spend time helping or fixing their mistakes time that works against your commission. You are expected to answer phones, make appointments, scan, print, take money, help new comers all while maximizing returns. If you take over someone's client and find a mistake you are expected to work against your commission to file amendments peace of mind claims etc.
