If They Were Trying for Most Unprofessional, They Succeeded Admirably - Tax Supervisor BPM Employee Review

One will go far if they are one of the management favorites! You know the sort - managers with less than zero people skills but they have unique technical abilities that somehow make them irreplaceable. This is sadly a prevalent problem in public accounting, but BPM strives to take this to the next level. I found out I was terminated by receiving an email from their IT department at 5PM. There wasn’t a prior discussion with my coach (who fit the definition of an empty suit), other managers, or HR. The brief Teams call came after the email, and only after I messaged my clueless coach. I was meeting billable hour goals, but I must have irked one of the many managers who wrote rude review comments and insisted on doing things the way they always have. You gotta love the dinosaurs in public accounting! New employees will be inundated with brainwashing techniques like never ending conference calls where the old guard touts how great the firm is. Well, for the zero emotional intelligence drill instructors, of course it is! They outlasted the honest, hardworking, and ethical former employees who took a deep sigh of relief after they moved forward. The pain felt from leaving is from the temporary loss of income, but rest assured there are many BPM survivors who can relate and will help others if they ask for it. There are many firms of comparable size that a candidate should choose over this one - I am glad my time there is over.
