Pros

There were some great co-workers here and they did invest a fair amount in training employees, initially. I enjoyed the people I worked with. If you can stick around long enough to make manager I believe the earnings are much better.

Cons

The overall feel of KCoe Isom is that of a greedy company who does not care much for employees at the associate level. They pride themselves on having a slow, promotion process to attain senior, etc. They believe this makes you more accomplished and the role more elite, but really it is just a way of delaying pay increases and bonuses. They are not generous to their employees. The years I worked here I saw $20 Walmart Gift Cards for my Christmas bonuses (not even enough to purchase the Jelly-of-the-Month-Club, sorry Griswald!) and tax season bonuses were even more atrocious considering me and my colleague's time-investment (50$ gift card, maybe). They also skimped on many other aspects of employee benefits (snacks, Christmas parties, etc.). Other firms I worked for were far more generous and appreciative. When I examined KCoe Isom from my rear-view mirror it became obvious how stingy they are.

Pros

Good Company with a lot of opportunity and challenging work. Feels small and tight nit

Cons

Pay and benefits can be less than ideal. Work life balance really depends on your level

Pros

Great coworkers, pay is always on time.

Cons

The firm’s continued focus on M&A activity has enormously diluted culture and created inconsistent expectations across offices. Standards vary widely, communication is often unclear, and most of the time its associates left exposed when following conflicting direction. Meaningful, honest feedback is difficult to get.
