Work Environment
Most audit and assurance accountants work in company offices, and some may work from their home office. Work hours are usually 40 hours per week, with some overtime required in the evenings and weekends to meet deadlines. Accountants work independently as well as with teams. They also spend some time in the workday traveling to clients' offices for meetings. The workload can be heavy at times and stressful, so the ability to stay focused on the details and deliver accurate reports is essential in this work.
