    Nice company and people

    Mar 12, 2023 - Consultant in Detroit, MI

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Everyone is pretty nice and alternative or remote work arrangements can very flexible depending on your group.

    Cons

    Always feel like you have to be “on call”. Maternity leave policy is at the bottom of the pile compared to other firms. You get 12 weeks, similar to other firms, but you can’t bank PTO as they have an “unlimited” PTO policy. So other firms you can get 18-24 weeks paid, depending on firm, Plante you get only 12. A lot of financial institutions and fortune 1000 companies, where people would theoretically work if outside of public accounting, give 16 weeks, some 20 plus banked FTO so they are really behind on this. Base salary is lower compared to other firms but bonus is higher however you’re waiting 3 months after performance year end to earn what you would have over the course of the year elsewhere. I get the point of it from a management perspective but I wonder how many people turn down job offers because of the lower base salary.

    One of the top 100 WORST places to work in the US

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Some good coworkers and free food.

    Cons

    The most toxic workplace culture I have ever come across. Google toxic workplace traits and I guarantee what you find will perfectly describe the situation. In fact, it is so incredibly bad, upper management (from Southfield HQ) even encourages it with how it treats it's employees in face to face meetings between upper management and staff. There is, 5 years after the merger, still SERIOUS bad blood between the formerly known EKSH and Plante Moran. In fact, since the merger, turnover rates for the Rocky Mountain Region have been rapidly increasing. Don't believe the marketing tactics. You are a number to this firm and nothing else and if you think otherwise you will be passive aggressively put down for it without any direct communication. If you are in anyway a minority, or female, don't even give a thought to this firm as it can barely accept diversity initiatives and the ones it does accept are absolutely worthless and have no sense of authenticity. I've seen these folks reach senior and manager level on the competency continuum and still be stuck in a staff level involuntarily (the competency continuum in practice means nothing to this firm other than some words on a paper). The mental health initiatives are all a joke to get recruitment numbers because when the time comes and you need help you will be shown complete disrespect and lack of dignity as a human being. HR recruits great folks with buzzwords and then once you're in the door you begin to see that all those things mentioned in the recruitment process actually are fake and have no standing in reality. This is why it is a SERIOUS statistical anomaly for someone to stay here for more than just 3 years which should be a serious red flag to HR but like most things ignored here by HR, is not. For all you aspiring young folk, it is important to know that just working long hours won't get you to partner. You have to be completely okay with, narcissistic, gaslighting human behavior and be fine dishing it out yourself once in a while.

    Pros

    Super friendly They seem to actually care for a PA firm (hard to believe I know) Solid pay (slightly above market) Versatile work (you get to do a little bit of everything)

    Cons

    A little lost at times not having clear direction. You don't have a specific team (at least not in my office). And your job was to just go find work. Sometimes there would be none at all and I even emailed other offices to find more work. And then sometimes 4 different managers/seniors dump way too many hours on your desk and they all want it be the same deadline.
