Staff Accountant

Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Do not apply at The Woodlands locations for an accounting position if you are a man. I'm a woman and the hiring manager (also a woman) told me she didn't hire a man because he wouldn't fit in. Mostly a bunch of old ladies work in the accounting department. I was one of the youngest on my team and I'm 42! The HR lady told a co-worker of mine that they had raises of maybe 2% or not at all in that location (Spring, TX) for several years. The position I hired in for was a Staff Accountant position, but the expectation were for a Senior position. However, the pay and overtime (20 hours during closing) definitely wasn't for a Staff Accountant job. The management is disorganized, rude and belittles the staff. One lady was given a performance reprimand after only being there for 7 weeks! Communication is poor. Training is non-existent. IT support completely sucks. The accounting software is not an ERP. It is basically a giant database. If you want to go back in time 20 years in software.... go ahead and apply! I voluntarily left as life is short and I'm lucky enough not to have to work, plus found a better job already!

Pros

erm.... the Money? if your lucky enough to be management,otherwise pay is below par.

Cons

chaotic, old fashioned hierarchy driven business, to get anything approved you have to go through several layers of Management that haven't a clue. If you don't fit and conform to what the management want then you don't stand a chance of growing in the business
