Pros

The firm provides exposure to various industries, offering opportunities to develop technical accounting skills.

Cons

Executive leadership lacks transparency and effective communication, leading to uncertainty and inefficiencies across the firm. Decisions impacting employees are often rolled out with little explanation or planning, making it difficult to adapt to changes. A major network outage was handled poorly, severely impacting workflow and productivity. Leadership failed to provide timely updates or solutions, leaving employees in the dark. This exposed deeper issues with the firm’s IT infrastructure and crisis management, highlighting a lack of preparedness for critical disruptions.

Pros

The remote/hybrid work environment provides a good level of flexibility and work-life balance. The health insurance benefits are decent, and the firm offers a generous holiday schedule.

Cons

Compensation is low relative to the workload and expectations. Employees who leave are often not replaced, resulting in their responsibilities being distributed among remaining team members. This has led to increased workloads, burnout, and a feeling of being overworked and underpaid. Frequent budget cuts create additional challenges by limiting resources and support while expectations continue to increase. The 401(k) match is also significantly below what many comparable firms offer. Overall, morale has suffered as teams are expected to do more with fewer people and fewer resources.
