This is as good as it gets if public accounting is your preferred career path. I decided to move into the corporate side but really enjoyed my time at BSSF.
The people at BSSF are caring and great to work with! There are clear guidelines about important policies such as when busy season starts and ends, hours requirements, and benefits. You learn a lot and get to see most areas of the engagement. There is a fun committee and a social committee that plans fun events which show that the firm cares about it’s people. The managers are flexible with hours if you have to work around appointments or things that come up in your personal life.
Cons
Busy season you are required to work a minimum of 55 hours including working weekends, the 401k match and vacation time are lower than average, employees are promoted based on length of time at the firm rather than merit and work ethic
Outside of tax season hours are very flexible, co-workers are easy to work with and you will learn a lot, benefits are fantastic including a fun committee that let's you know you are appreciated, Mr Frosty (an ice cream truck) comes once a week during the summer/spring/fall
Cons
Agreed with previous comment that staff are promoted, not necessarily on merit, but on how long they have been working
