Pros

The people are mostly great and there is some camaraderie amongst the team members who have to deal with the practitioners. Plus, they love to pay for expensive meals. Great place to get a taste of life at a large corporation.

Cons

LM doesn’t seem to realize they got acquired and it wasn’t a merger, but how could they when LC handed over most high level titles to LM? Regardless, nobody is buying into the one CBIZ thing. No bonuses, no clear path to advance, incredibly poor raises, constant worry that the stock price will lead to more layoffs. The culture is great but that doesn’t pay the bills or support families. The technology is bad and outdated and getting new tech from the company is like that commercial where the guy won’t let anyone buy razors at the drug store. For a company that does benefits and insurance, the benefits are nothing to write home about, but they should be. A lot of things are too siloed. Not a lot of chances for people to polish skills because they are given one job

Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.
