Pros

The work itself is not that difficult and its a relatively secure job. I learned how to be really good with Excel and become more comfortable with financial analysis. Outside of busy season, there is great leniency for PTO.

Cons

The work becomes super monotonous. Busy season really sucks. There's no opportunity to grow significantly. You really need to stay for a long time to see any real growth, but that has just led to me feeling like year over year growth is not a factor.

Pros

They try to stay loyal to their people Unlikely to be laid off if performance is good Supportive of internal mobility to a point. Varies on manager Great company for people coming out of college for gaining experience as long as they don't plan to make a career at RSM and Directors/Partners

Cons

Comp has been less in recent years due to economic environment which is already not competitive with industry No opportunities to negotiate pay during performance evaluation. You are just a number Continual efforts to normalize excellence. Going above and beyond is now a contingency for being promoted. This makes it increasingly difficult to differentiate oneself Spent 1 billion on AI investments. Hard to really see where it went apart from Copilot and the smaller pay bump.
