Pros

Best and most rewarding place anyone could work. The company and leadership truly cares about it's employees and the benefits are never ending. This is a private company who listens. I worked for a large public company before coming to Ryan and it was awful and hard to talk with your boss about your concerns because there was so much red tape. Anyone who gets an offer to work at Ryan should definitely accept!!!

Cons

There are ups and downs anywhere you work and in life in general. Stop complaining if you aren't happy. Negativity can kill you.

Pros

There is enormous opportunity for hardworking employees who are motivated by achieving results. Work life balance is great at Ryan with lots of flexibility. As a large, diverse firm with a huge footprint, Ryan has something to offer for everyone. Ryan has a strong brand in the tax services marketplace, and its focus on superb client service makes it an industry leader. Ryan has a vision for itself with a strong growth platform; most other tax services firms just seem to be content to hold onto what they have. Ryan gives back to the community which gives employees an outlet to be generous with their time and/or money.

Cons

The work environment isn't for everyone. There is a high degree of accountability at Ryan which some people don't like. The firm's technology platforms have lagged behind its growth. This is being addressed, but it will take a few years to get caught up.

Pros

From the CEO - who I absolutely adore - all the way down to most of my fellow individual contributors, the PEOPLE are what makes this company great! There is a genuine sense of teamwork and mutual respect throughout the organization. Leadership is truly transparent and responsive to every employee's concerns and questions, and is always looking for a better way of doing things. The CEO has recently instituted a monthly "all-hands" teleconference where he shares the progress of company-wide initiatives and answers questions from employees around the globe. I look forward to these calls, and always leave them with a renewed sense of excitement for the future of the firm. I feel that my work matters, that I matter, and that I am respected by everyone with whom I come into contact.

Cons

Sure, there are day-to-day annoyances that occur, but none are what I would consider deal-breakers in continuing my employment. The biggest con I can think of is the "Debbie Downers" who will find the negative in ANYTHING and EVERYTHING. These people either need to shut up, buck up, or get out. Let the rest of us enjoy the continuing success of the company and the fruits of our labor.
