Pros

I have been with this company a very short period of time and overall I really like it here. My Ryan is a great work incentive, great culture, everyone is very friendly and goes out of their way to get to know you.

Cons

Not an ergonomic friendly company you have to go through tons of hoops just so you can be comfortable working in the office. The dress code is a bit strict for this day and age.

Pros

I love the myRyan flexible work environment. It's exciting to be a part of a company that is growing and makes a lot of great business decisions. The transparency of the financials at the company meetings is something I always look forward to.

Cons

Sometimes the my Ryan policy feels like you don't have the camaraderie of coworkers, because people won't spend time in the office. Although this is truly dependent on where you work. I don't think this should be changed, but I think more team events or even office events would be ideal. Especially when you are working for remote teams. The compensation can be below market rates depending on the practice you are in. You are valued strictly based on how much revenue bring to the firm. I just think the value one brings should be looked at more carefully.

Pros

I can't image working for another company in our industry. Ryan has created a first class culture that rewards employees greatly. As the CEO stated during the firm meeting, when employees are happy and thriving, excellent client service follows. I come to work every day excited and empowered to serve my clients. Every day is different, which keeps the work fun and exciting. The myRyan work environment works. Having the flexibility to work from home, all the while being measured on the results and value I bring to the firm, creates a work life balance that can't be beat.

Cons

No real cons to mention. Ryan seems to be listening to our feedback - potential improvements on the horizon that would take Ryan to the next level would be enhanced 401(k) and a permanent casual dress code for the office.
