Great Experience Thus Far, Unique Company Culture

Pros

Ryan is a company built on the principle that working harder and smarter than anyone else yields tremendous success. That belief permeates the culture at Ryan in a very positive way. The myRyan program illustrates that, which is essentially a policy that lifts the limits of PTO and remote working time in exchange for the expectation that employees will get their work done and be more successful. In my time at Ryan (under one year as of this review), I've found it to be a great place to work. One that prides itself on being a leader among peers, with aspirations of reaching greater heights. The CEO is very candid, recently starting a monthly series of company-wide calls, where the Q&A is open and honest.

Cons

While I personally enjoy the open communication the CEO provides, it may not be within everyone's comfort zone. The environment is very fast-paced, with little in the way of established protocols and procedures for job duties. For someone who is ready to learn on the fly with minimal hand-holding, it's a great place.

Pros

Ryan's business model is unique. What a great opportunity I have been given to be a part of something that is growing and thriving every day. We are challenged from day one to do the impossible, take initiative, and do what is right for our clients, internal and external. But the rewards are there! Our benefits are above average, there is opportunity to grow both personally and professionally within their Learning programs, and everyone has the opportunity for work/life balance--to work at home when the need arises, take off for the sick child home from school or aging relative, or just be there for the repairman. Ryan's pay scale is above average and once you have proven yourself, increased compensation is given. One final note, management takes full responsibility for and works diligently to make Ryan a better place to work. They do listen, may not act on a suggestion, but is a rare trait to find in leadership and it starts at the top.

Cons

Ryan does have growing pains occasionally, but they work to resolve.

Pros

The depth and breadth of Ryan's talented tax professionals is unmatched in the Tax Consulting Industry and by far exceeds the capabilities of much larger Big 4 Firms. Ryan has invested significant resources to develop a service delivery model that is difficult for our competitors to duplicate. Our tax professionals are driven by our purpose to reduce our clients tax liability to the lowest levels allowed by law, while maintaining integrity and our reputation in everything we do.

Cons

For the few that our not driven to happily achieve and work towards our vision at Ryan, we have been slow to identify those few individuals that may not be a good fit in a fast paced, hard working teaming environment. I am glad to see our CEO made it very easy for those not happy here at Ryan to find their purpose with another firm. Those that remain, which is the vast majority, are very happy to be here and are very grateful to be part of a growing firm that takes such great pride with our service delivery and our results that we generate on a daily basis.
