No, it is not ok. You accepted the offer from one of the most prestigious firms in the world. How can you go back on your word? Please make the right choice and commit yourself to a life with jollibee and kolo mee or prata

Yes what about tunkutsu ramen university that you are not happy about?

It's not so much that the likes of UTAR can complete with SMU/NTU/NUS.

It's simply that accounting, as an academic subject, does not require a lot of brainpower. Neither does accounting as a professional field (accounting meaning all the related jobs including audit etc)

There are only so many ways you can deliver B.Acc course content, or screw up the delivery of a B.Acc course content.

Nobody really goes to Oxford, Harvard, MIT or Stanford to study Acc. I mean yes, you could do that, but you could also go to some 3rd rate Aussie uni like UTS Australia for your B.Acc education and you'll still end up in the same place as them, i.e. Big 4 audit.

So now you guys understand why UTAR or Ateneo de Naga University grads are your colleagues, doing the same job as you.

KP handover culture is trash. everyone just purposely dont complete and throw the work to the last person booked.
Seniors expect to clear junior review points. totally no ownership or responsibility
worst is they have the most number of JHK there from mid tiers
Their english is as bad as their old office
shortage of staff before peak even starts
shortage of staff even when peak starts

KP really cmi, having difficulty recruiting local grads ga
