Pros

ParenteBeard allows very flexible working schedules for their employees, constantly try to get employees involved in charity events, and provide a challenging work environment that forces employees to learn. The first week of training that ParenteBeard ever offered to me, called “New Hire Training”, we completed exercises that focused on not just my professional development but also my personal development. I think that ParenteBeard realizes that if they develop us as people, they create a much stronger and intelligent worker that benefits everyone, including other employees at the firm, ourselves, and society.

Cons

The largest challenge I face working in public accounting is work-life balance. I find it very difficult to have a life outside of work, while still trying to be involved in various charity events and study for my CPA exam. Another challenge is having to be constantly available to co-workers, even I go on vacation for week. I have a responsibility to check my e-mail every 24 hours, which can be intrusive.

It is nice to hear your enthusiasm and excitement for having a well-rounded schedule, balancing your work life and charitable endeavors. We are pleased to know our professionals appreciate our commitment to the communities we live and work. We understand client requests on your off days can be challenging and commend you for your ongoing dedication. Be sure to discuss your vacation plans with your immediate supervisor if you are unavailable to check your messages during your off period.

Pros

Good Benefits, Generous amount of Holidays and PTO, Hybrid

Cons

Long hours, Toxic culture, Aweful management who have inflated egos that treat staff as they are minions, with no respect. AWFUL pay rate, Sept to January you will have no life during open enrollment. Non stop travel, mandatory Saturday work during December. Every day you work 8:30 - 5:30 then you are expected to go home and work more overtime during busy season. Mandatory OT can be upwards of 10 plus hours per week.
