CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen) reviews

Not quite sure where to begin; In no particular order.... 1) Single parents and NON-CPA's -- this is NOT the company for you!! Consider your options carefully before committing to CliftonLarsonAllen. This will not be place for you to drive your career in the direction you want it to go without serious sacrifices (e.g. willingness to travel local or otherwise on 24-48 hr notice (sometimes less), no support for studying or sitting for the exam, willingness to be "on-call" 7 days a week, including "vacation" (blatantly requested or implied)). 2) Benefits package is abysmal at best. 3) Compensation is on the low end, especially since you WILL be working just about as many hours as the BIG 4, depending on your industry. 4) Annual raises, bonuses & profit sharing programs are just as ridiculous as the benefits package. They are not offered in a way that would motivate anyone to go "above and beyond" on any engagement. 5) Opportunity to switch industry focus is unlikely (or if granted, will be provided on a very temporary basis). 6) Too much of a "production" focus, without a compensating return. 7) CliftonLarsonAllen has a "sink or swim" mentality and is not made for the professional who needs a lot of "hands-on" training.

No pay raises year after year which is an actual pay decrees when taking into account inflation, fake "flexible" PTO, required to work 45 hours a week without any overtime, raises, bonus, or any financial reward which actually matters. You have to do ridiculous workday feedbacks, and self review every quarter but it means nothing because they don't even consider the feed back you've received when laying off. It is your job to find work, and when there is't enough work for you it's your fault, not leadership's. You get promised new projects and they are always delayed for months at a time and many times nothing even comes out of it. Pretentious company that likes to call itself "family" - only red flags here.
