Pros

The tax experience you get working. You can learn a lot from working so much.

Cons

The worst job I ever had hands down. CBG group is awful. 1. 70-80% of new hires get laid off after busy season, from audit and tax from performance. 2. HR are the fakest people in the planet. 3. Long hours. Management gives you a bad look leaving at 5pm post busy season. They monitor when you come in and leave. Leaving at 6 is normal. Managers love staying there till 10 everyday. Very old school style of working, management loves “being the boss” and making everyone aware that they are “the boss”. Busy season hours 8-9 pm usually. Saturdays as well. This is for the long island office. Everyone stays away from here for a reason. I have heard much better work life in the nyc office. Avoid woodbury. Impossible to transfer. HR does not care about you.

Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.
