The best part of working at McGrathNicol is the strong, supportive culture. Everyone is dedicated to helping you succeed and build a solid foundation for your career."
The positive and supportive workplace culture allows you to learn quickly as a graduate. It is not long before you are making genuine contributions and working independently.
Graduates get to work closely with senior staff like Directors and Partners, which is not an opportunity you receive at larger firms and provides great growth and learning opportunities.
Managers are supportive of working 1-2 days a week from home.
As a Graduate, you have a formal development program which involves online sessions and in-person camps with graduates across the country and all service lines.
Lack of resourcing during busy periods can place undue responsibility on younger team members.
There are times when work gets very busy, and I stay back a little to meet deadlines.
Smaller firm means the grad cohort is smaller.
I know some of my friends are on more at a similar level... Pay could be higher as the hours can be long.
High expectations during busy periods, which can be stressful… but I like how the McGrathNicol team works together to spread the workload.”
