Pros

Team members are friendly and will help you if you have questions. Most managers are willing to answer questions.

Cons

Nepotism adds a whole new level of office politics. The pay and benefits are well below industry average. There is not a 401k match and the health insurance is pretty poor. Staff doesn't get bonuses. Since the firm operates under a "one firm" model, you are expected to help out in tax, audit and advisory consulting services which makes your role very generalized. If you are interested in specializing - Good Luck because management doesn't listen. They will use you where ever the firm needs resources which means tax employees spend all summer and late fall doing audits.

Pros

At one time RubinBrown was a fun, caring place to work. Now, equity partner profit trumps everything.

Cons

The firm bragged for years that they run a lean firm with small, steady compensation increases but have never laid off during a downturn. COVID hits and the firm furloughs 50 people for 90 days, hurting families and terrifying everyone. They then share the news that they had a record year.

Pros

Good atmosphere Small firm feel in a big firm The people

Cons

No maternity or paternity paid leave like most large accounting firms. Not very transparent as to promotions. Owners only seem to care about making money for themselves. Many large firms are going to jeans in the office, here you have to pay to wear jeans maybe 4-5 times a year.
