Pros

Good training, investment in technology and software. Work from home

Cons

They inflate staffing to get through the busy season and then dump a lot in summer layoffs. Whole department outsourced to India

Pros

I found it to be a good place to work when the focus was on employee engagement. I got to work on engaging projects that kept me learning. The pace was fast and the energy was high stress, but the rewards were in line with the demand.

Cons

Internally focused roles are not scaled for growth. The whole year is busy season, and there has been a shift in the culture over the past few years. It is very much mirroring the rest of the Big 4 in energy, expectations, and disregard for employee welfare.

Pros

- It's not the worst place I've worked.

Cons

- Recurring Layoffs - Constant requests to do "extras" like training and internal initiatives with no billable target relief/credit -Poor Raises and Bonuses -Dishonest Leadership Basically this place has gone from being truly a unique player in the consulting/tax/audit space to just being like all the others in the Becker era. RSM used to be the place you went with the implicit understanding you would get less pay for a better work-life balance, but now they just pay poorly. I used to work with lots of really talented individuals, but most have left or are checked out and coasting. It's actually impressive how much damage has been done to the place in such a relatively short period of time. However, I really think the nail in the coffin for me and a lot of others I have spoken with has been the layoffs. They blatantly lie and claim they are making "performance cuts" every 6 months or so only to hire overseas resources. Most people have stopped going beyond the minimum because the cuts come for everybody. Morale is in the dumpster.
