Pros

Good, friendly, casual environment. Lots of opportunity for learning and growth. Some good morale events. Doesn't require a CPA. Opportunity for up to two remote days a week.

Cons

It's an endless cycle of doing pretty much the same thing each month. Everything revolves around the deadlines you need to meet for getting reports out to clients. Sometimes REMs are unresponsive and unhelpful so it eats into your time and you have to try and get information from them to correct errors. I don't like the cubicle set up. It's too wide open and you can hear everyone else on the phone and talking to each other all day. Luckily they do allow headphones but it's still fairly uncomfortable and doesn't feel like you really have your own space.

Pros

The company has a great mentor program. You will meet colleagues who do amazing things like write books, receive leadership awards, and write checks to nonprofits that really need the help.

Cons

I really have no complaints. I am still in contact with many of my colleagues there.

Pros

They provide a wealth of learning materials to further your career.

Cons

My experience was that upper management does not understand what those in lower level positions do, and they don't take advantage of experience and knowledge of those below them to make strategic decisions.
