The people make the job worth it

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The overall culture of the company is great....especially for an accounting firm. Most people are supportive and instructive, and many are eager to have a positive learning environment

Cons

The work hours can be quite demanding. Pay is competitive for the industry, but promotion program makes it difficult to quickly rise up the ranks as its a very traditional promotion structure

Business Outlook

Pros

You will never get fired! And the "culture" is truly one of a kind. If you love awkward silence this place is for you.

Cons

They love naming themselves after a firm that is historically known for Enron. Eventually they will replace all their staff with untrained monkeys once it's socially acceptable.

Good First Job, But Not Great Culture

Business valuation associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very smart, knowledgeable Managing Director and Manager The Business Valuation team recruits at UCSB, which isn't often a target school You can sneak free food during accounting busy season if you're friends with the accounting team Work life balance is good as I usually could leave around 5pm

Cons

Pay wasn't great, and more so annual merit increase was very small ($1000) Very boring and anti-social coworkers in general Boring work as a whole Not much room for creativity, experimentation - there is a right way to do something and you have to learn what it is - it's not so much crafting a story or developing a strategy for your clients as making your modeling/report fit a pre-existing valuation (e.g., EY values a 5% stake in a company at $60k so you make your discounted cash flow and comparables come out around $60k).
