Pros
EXCELLENT CULTURE Great work life balance Great compensation Very smart and dedicated employees, quality employees and management, including direct manager and partner. Great career coaching by man agent & tools available Flexibility
Cons
Currently no cons I have been with the company for a little over a year (I previously worked at CVS corporate and a few other large companies), and I must say, Marcum LLP by far beats all my previous experiences. I work with quality people and I compensated very well. I also feel appreciated.

- 5.0Oct 14, 2023SupervisorFormer Employee, more than 5 years
Pros
Marcum's upper managements is top notch. The office managing partners and regional managing partners I have encountered are great. You are given a lot of opportunities to succeed. Most employees are very friendly.
Cons
Work life balance is very poor. The workload gets worse every year and they don't listen to you when you feel like the pressure is too much. There is too much of a focus on being billable and taking on more clients than we can handle. This makes the quality of service go downhill for clients. There is also not much organic growth and they are too focused on acquiring other firms in order to improve their rankings. Even though most individuals in Marcum offices are very nice and friendly, I have encountered some very rude and toxic people in the DC office as well as in one of the Florida offices.

- 1.0Nov 15, 2023Senior Tax ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearNew York, NY
Pros
I met some great people but all of them either left the firm or fired by Marcum. The firm hires a lot of intalented people and they're incapable of doing tax returns.
Cons
no work life balance, busy season is at least 70 hours a week and HR don't care about you. CEO is a joke and he is very rude, he is a movie producer and shared about walking the red carpet with Kendall at Met Gala. They fired people who are talented and keep the ones who are lazy and don't do anything (someone who was working less than 40 hours a week during busy season)

- 3.0Nov 22, 2023HR ManagerFormer Employee
Pros
Quality organization that has high expectations of their employees
Cons
HR is expected to hold the hands of leadership instead of just provide guidance. Support roles aren't valued as highly as the accountants.

Pros
Great at keeping employees happy even during busy season.
Cons
A lot of hours, but this is a downside of accounting as a whole
