Pros

Most of the people are team oriented and the firm can provide you with opportunities to better your skill set.

Cons

The firm's pay scale is too low and a lot of people leave to find better paying positions. The firm is lacking with respect to handling the mentoring piece of the pie. Although they have just instituted a 'career advisor" review, I doubt it will work in the smaller offices due to overall office "politics".

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.
