Andersen reviews about "manager"

Office Politics Toxic Managers and Partners

Didnt feel like I was a person when working there.

Management tends to be overly controlling. Communication breakdown often occurs where one manager does not know what the other manager in the same department is doing. The quality of management varies significantly. Some managers are approachable and supportive while others play favorites providing insufficient actionable support. Unequal enforcement of workplace rules regarding attendance and breaks is common that plays a significant damage on team's morale and productivity.

Managers tend to be non confrontational and wait for review periods to express issues and concerns instead of confronting them as they are happening.

some managers were bad and you get overworked like a big 4 associate

Management continued to move the goal post for my promotion to manager and couldn't give me feedback to get to the next step. I also had two bosses that were on very different pages regarding my promotion; one advocated for me and one not. In addition to my role, I took over a Manager's position when she left without a title change or pay bump. It took them a full year to hire a new Manager and they had me, a Senior Associate, lead her training and determine career goals for her. I also heard my boss say many things that violated discrimination laws including "what's their demographic?" when asking about a candidate.

There is some ambiguity in the processes and procedures, as the approach can vary depending on the manager overseeing a specific project.
