CBIZ reviews

Cbiz may have acquired Marcum, but the dynamic feels reversed—Marcum leadership has taken full control, and the environment is extremely rigid. There is virtually no work–life balance. The Marcum leadership team is consistently bullying, condescending, and threatening, with little to no appreciation for staff. Micromanagement is constant. They routinely set employees up for failure by imposing unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines. There are no meaningful perks—aside from the occasional bagels. No summer Fridays, no early holiday closures, working through lunch is the norm, and PTO approvals are unnecessarily difficult. Many of their practices feel questionable at best. The toxic culture reaches every level of the organization. Every few months there are mass firings, or employees are pushed to the point where they feel forced to resign.

Since the Marcum merger, firm has significantly shifted in all the worst ways. The culture and processes are awful and have made the job increasingly difficult to tolerate with teams constantly lashing out at each other (CBIZ v. Marcum). Intense focus on utilizing BINDZ staff and trial lack of care for developing or hiring local talent. Lack of leadership among management. The company has become a total embarrassment within the industry.
