Pros

If you are looking for a place with a good work/life balance, this could be a good place to work. To echo a previous review, be cautious of the "positive" reviews posted from Dec 2015 - Today.

Cons

Pay - Its been noted before, but compensation is based on utilization. Low utilization leads to lower pay. Often utilization is beyond your control and you will remain on the bench for months. Many report utilization well below 50%. Benefits - 401K is pitiful, Vacation is not paid at full hourly rate and only given a few days, Health Benefits are inexpensive, but pretty poor.

Thank you for your feedback. The Riveron Executive team evaluates benefit offerings annually to provide the best healthcare options for our employees. While the cost of healthcare continues to rise, Riveron believes in minimizing that impact to our employees. We continue to offer rich ‘employee only’ medical and dental coverage that is free of charge, and contribute more than the national average towards medical and dental coverage for families. The Firm absorbed 99% of the premium renewal increase during the 2015-2016 plan year, passing on just a $5 increase to our employees. The Riveron medical plans include a traditional PPO with a national network, and a non-high deductible health plan, with the option of a Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) to help employees with health care related expenses and their annual deductible. In today’s market, many employers are forgoing a 401(k) employee match, however Riveron implemented a matching program in 2015, and have continued to match per our policy for employee contributions. We believe in the financial and medical well-being of our employees and their families and have programs in place like an Employee Assistance Program that echoes this belief. Riveron's Executive Team has an open door policy and welcomes feedback from employees at any time. If you have concerns, please contact Human Resources at humanresources@riveronconsutling.com.

Difficult to see a path

Pros

Great consultants - talented and high energy teams with the opportunity to learn if you're lucky enough to get on one of the few remaining projects

Cons

Bloated admin/management staff and infrastructure, disengaged management team, no discernible plan on how to win new work in a competitive environment. changes in management early in the year seem to have made the situation worse and key client service leaders have left or talking about leaving. Pay plan makes it difficult with little work to come close to the promised bonuses. As other posters say most of the new work is staff augmentation which seems to be the direction this firm is taking.

Pros

I would be cautious of the positive reviews for this company. It came to management's attention how poor the ratings were on glassdoor and suddenly many good reviews came flooding in to the website. The company was growing fast- it is no longer. It is a good place for a former CPA, all other skill sets should look elsewhere

Cons

Poor management and little to no direction for the company as a whole. Interested to see where we end up in a few years. Compensation is tied to utilization- Consultants have no control over utilization-therefore pay is unpredictable and often really poor due to the company's lack of ability to win work.
