Pros

Liked some fellow recent grads working with me in Tax & Audit.

Cons

1. I would not recommend this particular location for CPA students they don't offer support or allow ANY time off while your in the mods. 2. The culture at this office is highly toxic, this is a result of the tone from the top specially the partners who have been there before the takeover from BDO. 3. Repeatedly told that CPA grads are "dime a dozen" and easily replaceable 4. Favorites/hockey players are promoted over everyone else 5. Pay is awful and raises are even worst 6. Partners are very disrespectful towards other cultures. 7. No training is provided and you are expected to know everything. I would advice anyone from accepting a job offer from them. I would recommend any other firm except them.

Pros

Consultants were not overworked, and people are generally staying in their own lane. Strong knowlegeable teammates and lots of internal resources to grow. Work life balance was good.

Cons

I left during a time of transition, since the top practice director retired and the EBA leader took over as interim leader. This interim guy seemed to be waiting for something to take any action with current resources, and he was not too interested in rallying or figuring things out as a team. If he had expectations, they were never communicated to me. The lack of clarity was very challenging for me personally, and it came off as a lack of support. I think others in the team probably feel similarly.
