Pros
The ability to work from home on a consistent basis (when you aren’t traveling to clients) is a huge plus at Crowe and one of the best benefits they offer.
Cons
Charge hours and “unlimited” PTO. So charge hours are kind of pointless imo. Management wants employees to hit specific charge hour goals on a yearly basis, but also has a tone at the top that encourages employees to eat charge hours in order to meet the budgets on our client engagements. This makes it challenging to balance meeting your own expectations without running through a budget and upsetting a manager. Additionally, the switch to unlimited PTO has made it effectively impossible to take time off without having to work overtime at other times to catch back up on your charge hours. As a result, you end up working the same amount of hours, so it’s effectively not true time off.
