    AI summary of recent reviews

    Employees at Kreston John & Gan appreciate the friendly and supportive environment, with helpful colleagues and less office politics. They value the learning opportunities available, including handling listed company audits, IPOs, and other special assignments. The firm provides training and development opportunities, such as financial support for ACCA studies, internal CPD-approved trainings, and guidance from seniors. Reviewers also noted reasonable work-life balance, with reasonable overtime expectations and the ability to claim overtime, travel, and medical expenses.

    However, some employees find it challenging to manage workloads, particularly when handling multiple listed company audits and leading teams. There is a need to frequently train new staff due to employee turnover. Employees may need to research technical updates themselves, as there is limited time allocated for this. Additionally, there are occasional IT infrastructure issues, such as printer and computer breakdowns, which can impact work efficiency.

    Small medium audit firm
    The good thingsgot listed company client, which is a very good exposure compare with other small medium audit firm. Wont too stress due to client base not that much.
    The challengesPoor career development, no training provided, bad staff promotion policy and unclear hierachy level. It is because company had no planning on expansion. Everything need to learn by your own.

    The good thingsKreston John & Gan is a small medium audit firm, you are able to learn the audit process from \"Head to Tail\". Since you have to learn the audit from \"Head to Tail\", the experience you can gain here is COMMUNICATION, how to make the works perform efficiently. Mostly importantly, this company has a friendly environment and no office politic.
    The challengesNumber of employees of this company is range from 20 to 40. So the most challenge part is \"what make you different from the others?\". If you are outstanding, you will involve more on more challenging assignments with the guidance from seniors. For those not so outstanding, training will be provided as employees are the image and reputation of a company.
