Pros

Flex hours..enjoy co-workers, free garage parking.

Cons

Pay, healthcare, 401K retirement are atrocious! No raises in @ least 6 years & it's taboo to discuss, as ransom sized bonuses to execs have been guaranteed with no interruption. Do not come here if you're looking for a career that pays well. But if you're looking for a job to get you through until something better opens up then yes do apply. Nothing that's needed to make your job more efficient is ever in the budget. Policies and procedures look good on paper and sounded good in the meeting but are not enforced consistently. Lower management applies no common logical thinking practices to basic daily tasks. IT dept is a clueless joke. Something is always wrong with an operating system & they never know why or how to permanently fix it. Too many varied responsibilities for each position for the low wages. They really mean "additional duties as assigned" in the job description. Deadlines are expected to be met with an overwhelming work load but OT is barred. No OT is probably the only policy that's strictly enforced. The execs figured out an effective way to eliminate OT by tying it to lower management bonuses. If lower management allows OT it decreases their bonus...get it? Certain employees that have found favor with the IIC remain on the payroll earning inflated salaries with NOTHING to do. Lacking in advancement opportunities unless you have favor. In this case a position will be created for you or you'll stay in your current position & be paid an inflated salary just because you're you & they like you.

Pros

Strong work-life balance compared to public accounting. Leadership is supportive and approachable. The work is meaningful and provides exposure to ASC 740, multi-entity tax provision work, and corporate tax compliance. Employees are generally encouraged to collaborate and help each other succeed.

Cons

Compensation growth may lag behind opportunities available in some areas of public accounting. Advancement opportunities can be limited due to a relatively lean tax department structure. Some processes remain heavily dependent on spreadsheets and manual workflows, which can create inefficiencies during busy periods.
