      Pros

      Base compensation Is slightly competitive I will say that.

      Cons

      Managers in specific, smaller groups have questionable qualifications and are only favored due to sheer experience (length of employment within the firm) extreme favoritism and unprofessional behavior. Office politics are at an extreme- managers will gossip with admin instead of doing their jobs efficiently. Personal vendettas and jealousy is a large issue at hand here. It’s as if the low morale and hostile workplace environment has regressed managers back to high school. Certain new staff especially younger staff members are set up to fail in some ways depending on their interactions with management.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Big Company that is rapidly growing. Freedom to move around as you please.

      Cons

      Struggled with assimilation after the merger with UHY. Tax just was not able to compete on the corporate side. Company would accept engagements that were so small it was very difficult to remain profitable. Didn't seem to want to utilize all available resources in order to compete with bigger firms. Growth mostly came in form of acquisition of smaller regional firms. That creates culture clash. Growth not coming in the form of increasing market presence. Will take over your life without remorse

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Good central location with somewhat nice offices - Free fruit twice a week (though it never lasts long) - Lots of exposure to different types of work and colleagues in different offices - Very easy to get away with doing the bare minimum

      Cons

      - Not enough staff for the work which results in existing good staff having to work much longer hours - Extremely high staff turnover - Lack of transparency on promotions, will bring up anything they can in appraisals to not give promotions/salary increase or bonus - Every single person in the company is in it for themselves and managers will always try to bring you down - Managers and Senior Managers abuse the flexible working hours and intimidate the junior members of staff
