Dead end job - former portfolio accountant

Pros

The only reason I liked this job was the corporate office's location in downtown Walnut Creek

Cons

- accounting department is stale, portfolio accountant is a dead end job - accounting department management is very reluctant of any change or ideas - procedures are convoluted and unchanging from year to year - you have to clock in and out, micromanagement in everything -there are many unnecessary pointless rules

Completely unprofessional and highly egotistical.

Pros

As a job the only pros for working within Sequoia are; A pay check Vacation days Medical coverage There are constant open positions due to people constantly leaving the company.

Cons

As a company that boasts "being one of best" they fall so very short and count on their employees ignorance in knowing any better. The incentives they offer are meager in comparison to other companies that are actually top ranked not self proclaimed. The medical benefits are highly overpriced in comparison again to most other companies. As for the culture they promote, it's not at all about being the best or being knowledgeable. It's about being friends with your boss and Lying about performance issues. There are employees in the HR department with personal friendships with on-site employees. Managers have been promoted unqualified over other employees based on relationships. In summation, this company talks very big but delivers very little in return. The training is poorly thrown together including the major fair housing and screening policies and regulations trainings.

If you are willing to work hard, adapt to change, and be part of the team, you will be successful at Sequoia. Sequoia is also big on promoting from within.
