Great company to work for but doesn't pay great.

Junior tax accountant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very flexible workplace, strong support for work life balance. There is ample learning and development opportunities available to employees if they are desired

Cons

The average pay is lower then competing firms which can be frustrating sometimes. Sometimes can seem disorganized, but makes up for it by having easy people to work with.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very smart and committed group of professionals who are gaining new business in record growth numbers without compromising the level of support to their exiting client base.

Cons

Run a little lean....some of the worst admin ratios per professional I have experienced (all with poor skill sets, too); inefficiencies like this throughout firm could actually make an otherwise sound and growing firm be even more competitive.
