Pros

- I worked with many other groups during my off season and they were all great and understanding of the time crunch. - Good work/life balance - Bagels on Fridays - Snacks

Cons

- The parking is no bueno. There are only 6-8 spaces available for auditors! Every one who is not early has to resort to street parking. - Pay is significantly lower than industry average. I was placed in the Labor Union group and they were a nightmare to work for. It was the most hostile work environment that I have ever encountered. I regret not reporting them to HR and enduring the abuse while I was there. Don’t be a pushover like me, say something if you feel mistreated. The day that I gave my notice to my partner, she apologized profusely because she knew how much I was bullied by my supervisors yet did nothing to mitigate the situation. She was as bad as them. I remember she sat me down and told me to adopt a “Mona Lisa” mentality. That is, smile, but not be so cheery. I knew at that moment this was not the firm I want to stay in long term. I am naturally a happy and bubbly person, and to be told that was not acceptable behavior crushed me.

Pros

Free fruit, Saturday lunches provided during busy season, nice coworkers.

Cons

Awful mangament, major nepotism in the workplace. The technology is incredibly old fashioned. I have applied everything to the best of my knowledge during the tax season bit it was still not enough according to the partner because my work was still returned back to me. I even went back to discuss this with the client and the client agreed with my initial judgement. The partners presume that your stupid and assume your not doing your job. When I left one of the partners told me that I'm the type of person who should just be a bookkeeper for a living and I'm a CPA! Very offensive treatment which was below the belt and should not have been said. A good employer is someone who encourages others not put them down but not at MKA. Did I also mention that the pay is terrible? And the OT is a joke. There is no career growth there. Dont even take this job even if your desperate for work, just keep looking. You'll save yourself the time and drama.
