Pros

The culture here is what makes the difference. There is a true sense of family - the leadership genuinely cares for the people. Communication is transparent and they are always trying to make improvements to areas that employees provide feedback on.

Cons

Though benefits are good overall (and there are a variety of benefits offered), the paid parental leave is not competitive with other firms. The paid parental leave needs to be lengthened considerably for both moms and dads.

Great people, bad career move if you are not in audit

Pros

Leadership is really down to earth and cares about their people. Since it is a smaller company, you get the family feel and a decent culture. I established amazing relationships there. If you want to learn internal audit / risk management without being in the big 4, this is a great spot to be.

Cons

The solution offerings and project work are behind the times. Everything you work on will be focused around audit and compliance, even if you are in Technology Consulting.
