Pros

Great people and good work life balance. As an intern, I was paid really well and sometimes even better than salaried employees when you count overtime pay. Good chance that you will get a full time offer as long as you didn't mess anything up too badly.

Cons

Doesn't give off the allure of one of the big named accounting firms. People still think it is American Express. While interning, I didn't get the feeling that the people at the company were all that intelligent. Don't get me wrong, they didn't seem stupid, but they just didn't blow me away as I thought they would.

Pros

They try to stay loyal to their people Unlikely to be laid off if performance is good Supportive of internal mobility to a point. Varies on manager Great company for people coming out of college for gaining experience as long as they don't plan to make a career at RSM and Directors/Partners

Cons

Comp has been less in recent years due to economic environment which is already not competitive with industry No opportunities to negotiate pay during performance evaluation. You are just a number Continual efforts to normalize excellence. Going above and beyond is now a contingency for being promoted. This makes it increasingly difficult to differentiate oneself Spent 1 billion on AI investments. Hard to really see where it went apart from Copilot and the smaller pay bump.
