Avantages
Events to attempt and bring colleagues together. Some employees are very nice while others are total thugs.
Inconvénients
One of the worst political, bureaucratically, ineffective “firms”out there. They bring you in making it seem like your entering la la land but it’s nothing short of a disaster when you enter. The NY office has very incapable, no good for “leaders”. They are Partner in the firm, when they’re experience, proffesional behavior, industry “fame” should make them no more than a supervisor. When there is a undeveloped practice, they’re method is to bring in industry thought leaders and badger and harass them if they don’t bring in business within the first few months! In order to bring in top firm work, you need a top firm infrastructure. No one wants to hire or pay employees, but if you want a practice to run that’s what required. I left the firm in search of a more entrepreneurial firm. The firm is more focused on technology than accounting. As we continue in this advanced world, it is good to be ahead of technology but you can’t be solely focused on that. Firm pays more attention than audit, tax, consulting. Every few months there is SEC violation after violation. Firm has paid MILLIONS in damages and rewards within the last year. Total shame. Don’t get fooled by their awards for lifestyle. It is a total scam. This is the worst accounting firm. Better to join large firms who advance based on talent, not based on who brings in the most apples to suck up to the OMP.
