Very poor salaries compared to the rest of the industry
Very little to no communication from senior leadership on key operational issues
For all trainee accountants - YOU WILL NOT BE SENT TO COLLEGE FOR TRAINING - Aztec use HTFT which is an online training provider with hands down the worst platform i have ever seen. You are expected to learn after work in your own time, with a few days off for study leave, this is exhausting after being burnt out from dealing with clients.
If you're a smart, ambitious and driven individual like me, your ideas or creativity won't be listened to or appreciated.
The general training for the role i experienced was very poor - you are given the work and told to perform without proper explanation, and the Aztec Academy is a joke.
Little communication between client facing teams, tech or projects teams meaning wires constantly get crossed.
I joined Aztec for the 'culture', and whilst is was average to start, it must sit at an industry low now.
