Jul 12, 2022 - AuditorRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Good employee benefits (401K, employee resources, etc.)
Cons
Salary Could have matched the market better.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Lots of learning abilities and industry experience- in OK this is especially government, healthcare and banking.
Cons
Poor culture in Oklahoma. It is a sad situation in OK. Many long term auditors have left in the last 6 months, including a senior manager, director and managing director. They have primarily left due to a poor culture that only rewards partners. Partners in OK do not align to firm values and are misogynistic. They routinely admit lower pay but indicate it’s worth it for the opportunity to be a partner in the future and stability. When individuals leave they don’t tell them if the good of the firm but rather use the tactic of fear in trying to insinuate they will be laid off in other jobs.

FORVIS (Formerly BKD)
May 22, 2022 - Auditor Associate in Kansas City, MORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
BKD offers an environment that you can excel at given the team members you work with. This is a mid size firm so the pressure the Big 4 offers is nonexistent and you can actually enjoy life outside of work. It can get busy and you get more responsibility as the years progress but stick it out and you will thoroughly enjoy it.
Cons
Usual Accounting firm cons - Busy Season
