Pros

Ryan's flexible work environment, myRyan is certainly a key feature of the company's success strategy, and I'm grateful to be able to work remotely. It's a perk that would stand on its own as a reason to never leave (the underlying philosophy is 'work where and when you want, just produce results), but there's much, much more to the Ryan story. Ryan is making tremendous gains in the industry, and the CEO is a force to be reckoned with. The guy is seriously fearless -- he's gone head to head in court with the IRS and other taxing bodies, and won. Ryan has taken on cases that other firms won't touch, all in the name of defending taxpayer rights, and stopping government overreach. I LOVE working for a place that is feisty, scrappy, and encourages this entrepreneurial spirit in its employees. You don't just feel like a mindless drone; you feel like you're a part of something bigger and better, and potentially life-changing. There's something very special and unique about Ryan that is different than other places I've worked, and I am excited to see what happens next.

Cons

Sometimes telecommuting can be a little lonely.

Choosing Ryan was one of the best decisions I have ever made!

Pros

Joining Ryan over 6 years ago was one of the best decisions I have ever made. (1) Ryan has very competitive compensation packages and benefits to ensure we hire the best of the best out there. The members of the team I am on are stellar. (2) The flexibility allowed at Ryan to achieve a successful work/life balance is unmatched--the ability to choose my own hours and work from home has been a lifesaver for me and my family. (3) It is refreshing to be in a company where upper management stresses the importance of transparency. The CEO himself speaks to the entire company on at least a monthly basis. He also holds regional Town Halls periodically and invites every level of employee to speak their minds--whether with complaints or praise. I am surrounded by the best minds in tax and in the best environment, while being compensated very nicely. What more could one ask for?

Cons

I think the office thermostat was installed for aesthetics rather than function. It doesn't seem to matter which way I turn the device--I'm always hot in the summer and freezing in the winter. This is a very minor complaint, however, because when I'm uncomfortable, I can leave and work wherever I want.
