Pros

McGladrey has good training and firm resources. They used to advertise they had "the best of both worlds" (big 4 and smaller firm), but now that they have reorganized several times, I don't think this is true anymore.

Cons

Firm changed benefits almost every year I was there. They have grown a lot without a good strategy for growth and there isn't a consistent culture across offices, even in the same state.

Pros

Good compensation package and training

Cons

They do not have a supportive Resource team that are keen to assist associates in transitioning to the choice of industries they prefer. A request to switch industry should not take close to a year to complete. Audit folks are expected to be working from January to March due to busy season which is fair. However, prior to hire, HR should be make it clear to candidates about the holidays expectation. Lower levels associates are not allowed to take holidays in December as we are expected to be on standby during Christmas holidays for inventory counts.
