Andersen reviews

Terrible hours! In non-tax season, you're still expected to put in almost 10 hours a day. When you tack the commute on, you end up having 12 hour days for not nearly enough pay. Expected to work Saturdays with no exception and cannot ever leave work early Misrepresented the Associate position, which meant that as an Economics major I felt completely overwhelmed. If you are not an Accounting major and do not plan on becoming a CPA, find a different company because Andersen will do its best to make you feel as unwelcome as possible. Billing hours capped so it feels like you basically slave away for very little pay. NO work/life balance

Expected to work around the clock for very little pay. Over expansion has greatly reduced their ability to remain competitive with salaries and bonuses (bonuses were almost nonexistent for anyone below management. Extreme favoritism shown by many partners (not all, but too many). If you start your career here, do a year or two and move on. The managers and above were on the average some of the most unhappy (and unhealthy) people I have seen in a workplace. Life's too short and sweet to waste away at this place.
