They will treat you horribly in outsourcing - Assistant Controller CLA (CliftonLarsonAllen) Employee Review

Pros

Some of clients were interesting

Cons

Management blames the lower level employees without consideration to hear a whole story when there is a conflict. Supervisors do not look to guide and train their subordinates, rather they call names, lie to management, and will throw their staff under every bus where a mistake comes up. Supervisors and management have no accountability for their actions. They are friends with one another and just look to protect themselves. Management will call you a "risk" if they do not like you and will incentivize you to leave by reducing your wages, and take client work away from you. The organization does not live to its standards and acronyms they use to give a feeling of inclusivity in their culture. They advertise flexibility but I worked every single day and night on my clients. I worked out of the Lexington office in Massachusetts in the NFP outsourcing practice. The management treated me like I was just a body they needed to place on their clients and it showed. Don't work for these people, you will be sorely miserable here.

Pros

Good thing national teams allow remote work opportunity because there's not enough space in the local offices anyway, but you might just end up working after hours more often than not.

Cons

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.
