This question is making my head spin. Can we just skip to the part where they give us the free donuts for passing the exam?

I'm not so sure about a flat structure. Wouldn't that make it harder for junior auditors to get guidance and feedback from their superiors? Seems like a recipe for chaos to me.

A flat structure sounds like a great way to avoid the bureaucracy and red tape of a hierarchical setup. I'm all for more collaboration and less overhead.
