Cons

Pros

This is a fast-growing office in an accounting firm with a niche focus. You have the opportunity to learn quickly with one on one training.

Cons

None are noted. The location would be better closer to downtown for some of the younger team members.

Pros

Awesome opportunities for even first years to be exposed to complex challenges and assignments.

Cons

With the recession, the firm's culture drastically eroded when they realized they had no idea how to bring in business. Before that most of their business came from simply answering the phone thanks to SOX. Female partners and management team up for a "girl's club" that beat up on those outside (especially the men). The most talented folks leave for better opportunitites. You are expected to shut up and follow templates blindly since they don't like it when you think for yourself.

Thank you for writing this review. While it is disheartening to hear about a former employee’s unfavorable experience, we welcome opportunities to improve and ensure Johnson Lambert continues to be a great place to build a career. Part of the reason we are able to offer career growth and advancement opportunities is due to collaborative team leadership, effective mentorship, and our culture of inclusion, regardless of gender. Our Quality Control team and Strategic Oversight Committee work hard to provide appropriate guidance via templates and ongoing training to all of our people. In turn we believe this guidance and training enables our people to provide top-notch service to our clients. While marketing and business development can be challenging, especially during economic downturns, Johnson Lambert has a proven track record of growth. Johnson Lambert has been listed amongst the INSIDE Public Accounting’s (IPA) Top 200 largest accounting firms, moving up the ranks in 2015, to #124 (from #135 in 2014). Johnson Lambert is also the 6th largest provider of property and casualty insurance audits per A.M. Best’s Top Audit Firms. We have opened two new offices since 2008 and have added two new services lines. We have grown steadily and comfortably in nearly every year of our 30 year history. In 2015 we met our full year sales goal in September and total sales were 115% of our targeted number. In 2016, we anticipate double digit growth.

Pros

The firm culture is fantastic including tons of social activities/ holiday parties out of town/ firm-wide retreats and happy hours. There are tons of growth opportunities within the firm and the partner level doesn't seem so "far fetched".

Cons

pretty long busy season given nature of industry focus (although not as intense hours wise as typical public accounting)
