Hours
- "I work the hours that I am supposed to daily, and only very occasionally am I expected/needed to work late. Also, my firm is very understanding with respect to annual leave and has a flexible benefit allowing the purchasing of extra holidays." -- Tax, Entry level, London

- "In the 10 weeks I’ve been at the company I’ve been at the office 3 days, one of which was an induction. The rest of my time has either been spent at a client or at various training centres. Weekly hours are 37.5, if you work over this you’re given it back via holiday time. It is very easy to sell or buy holiday and the company is fairly flexible." -- Audit, Entry level, Cardiff
- "The official hours are 37.5 hours per week. I probably spend around 40 per week. Working up to the January deadline, I understand there will be a lot more overtime. I don't think anyone has to work at weekends though." -- Tax, Entry level, London
