McGrathNicol Reviews

Promotion ordinarily occurs after 2 years (1.5 years as a graduate), however there are opportunities to be promoted more quickly.

The CSR is largely focused on charity - there are many fundraising and charitable events on offer i.e. pizza lunches, volunteering and participating at Balmoral Burn, volunteering at corporate lunches, local matters in Martin Place, making sandwiches for an hour in the work day for school kids

Socialising among colleagues is great, office events are full of life and enjoyable, there is opportunity to move vertically and horizontally, people are lovely.

There is a diversity and inclusion team which has a particular focus on gender. I understand there are targets for women in more senior roles as at a grad level, the recruitment process is even.

Nice variety, with ability to choose which types of work I prefer. Great management who provide support but also allow for autonomy.

They are amazing mentors, hard working people with great concern for the wellbeing and achievement of their counselees.

On one of the best streets in the city. Brand new office we moved into July 2021. Everything is very new and modern. We also have facilities with showers, hair straightener etc. in our building. Dress code is very professional at all times. nothing less expected.

Easy and comfortable interview process. There is more of a focus on getting to know you as a person rather than only looking at grades and asking standard interview questions.

Pay is on par with other firms for graduate level and I received a bonus after working for approx. 4/5 months.

The graduate development program provides plenty of training, but on-the-job training is the most beneficial experience.

Hours are 8.45 to 5.15 with a 60/40 wfh policy. I prefer working in the office so typically work 5 days in the office and on occasion from home.

Lots done online now versus in person. Some regulatory requirements mean we have to print for creditors.
