Pros

Plenty of good opportunities to learn. You are exposed to many different clients and topics so there is always something new to do.

Cons

Work-life balance in public accounting isn't supported very well. They claim to be proactive in helping employees, but really it's more just talk. Upper management creates "work-life" balance programs, but doesn't ensure that they are carried out.

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.
