Kerkering Barberio & Co Accountant in Sarasota, FL:   (Past Employee - 2009)

Pros

Name recognition.
Name recognition.
Name recognition.

Cons

If you aren't friends with your shareholder, you are basically on the outs to begin with.
Lots of favoritism.
Certain employees are allowed to act as bosses (and not even in management positions).
Other shareholders turn a blind eye to the chaos of their department and just care about billing clients and getting their pay.

Advice to Senior Management

Shakedown of shareholders/managers/supervisors in order. There are good employees who want to do their jobs but it is tainted by the lack of respect provided in most departments and too many henchmen who are just out to cut heads. Not a comfortable work environment, no open door policy. And to be more realistic about the hours that they want employees to work.

One shareholder (the smallest one) thinks he calls the shots. They need a shakedown as the ship is sinking. Very toxic work environment.

I agree it is not right. Employees with the same title should be making the same or have levels such as:

Senior Tax Manager
Tax Manager

There is a difference in a Senior Tax Manager and just a Tax Manager. Some managers just carry themselves, some carry a shareholder, some carry shareholders and some carry shareholders, and an entire team plus more. YOU KNOW who you are. It is not fair.

If a tax manager is hired, they should be given a tax return to review before they are hired. That will tell a lot of their performance. Plus they should have to prepare an 1120.
