Work-Life Balance
Grant Thornton New Zealand's job listings state: "Everyone at Grant Thornton enjoys our flexible working policies and gets to participate in our nine-day fortnight trial with no reduction in pay." Staff get every second Friday off at full pay.
Note: the firm currently describes the nine-day fortnight as a trial — though it is being advertised to candidates joining as far ahead as the 2027 graduate intake, and its sister firm Grant Thornton Australia made its own nine-day fortnight permanent in 2024 after a successful trial.
