First off - let me start by saying how most of these "great reviews" aren't legitimate. If you scroll through you'l notice that the negative reviews are flagged as "Helpful" 10x more than these "great reviews. Funny...isn't it?
I'll start by saying that Brint Ryan is an extremely arrogant and self-absorbed person. I'm sure almost any employee can attest to this. From his boastful speeches about his giant house/accomplishments, etc to the fact that the growth of the company is celebrated by honoring HIM (what about your employees?!?!) The company is only going downhill, as evident by the increased employee turnover (even senior partners) as well as the fact that he now offers "incentive" packages for anyone that thinks Ryan isn't a "great place to work. HA I wish this existed when I still worked there! Would've been out in a heartbeat. If a CEO can't learn to change this top-down company structure, good luck surviving (or rather, being successful).
Next...COMPLETE lack of company culture! We all laughed about how bad it was when I worked there. From the establishment of the "culture council" to Ryan PRIDE...it still lacked so much. Probably because senior management is so stuck in their old ways. No company morale, nothing.
Moving on...I will say I was fortunate enough to be on a high-revenue producing team, but I cannot say the same for everyone at the company. As many other people have said...it all depends on the luck of the draw. You're already making below industry average, so if you lack bonuses, then good luck getting anywhere in this company. It's a total niche business so if you think you should get out, do it before it's too late.
What else...hmm. MyRyan is completely depended on the manager, as much as good ole Brint liked to brag about how its so commonly used. Too much catty-ness. Never been in such a "high-school" like environment where people talked behind each others backs constantly. I think I was even the worst version of myself there. Brint forces you to fill out all these surveys with tons of annoying emails - it's far from the Best Place to Work, don't kid yourself.
TL/DR....DON'T WORK HERE! There's a reason everyone leaves and that the Big 4 just laugh. Get out while you can.
