Pros

People genuinely care about one another and there isn’t the back stabbing feel like I experienced at the Big 4. Leaders are very visible and accessible, and there is a culture of wanting to do the right thing for employees, clients and our communities. In my experience, most everyone lives our values of Respect, Excellence, Accountability and Leadership. Pay is competitive. Benefits are excellent.

Cons

Lots of change in trying to remove silos that naturally occur when many companies are merged or acquired. No clear reporting structure within Tax and Audit structure makes people feel like they don’t know where to turn for support at times. Not much diversity, though I don’t blame recruiting efforts or management for that. A few old-school shareholders refuse to come in to the 21st century in their ways of thinking.

Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience with our accounting firm. We're thrilled to hear that you feel there is a genuine sense of care among colleagues. We pride ourselves on fostering a culture that encourages employees to do the right thing for clients, the community, and each other. We appreciate your feedback regarding the challenges that come with mergers and acquisitions, as well as the lack of a clear reporting structure within Tax and Audit. We understand that this can create uncertainty for employees, and we're constantly striving to improve communication and support within our organization. Regarding diversity, we recognize that there is always room for improvement, and we are committed to creating a more inclusive environment. We believe that being open to new ideas and ways of doing things is critical to our success, and we will continue to strive for progress in this area.

Thank you for sharing this, and congratulations on completing your internship with us. Hearing that it was a strong learning experience is exactly what we hope for. We put real thought into how we structure our intern program because we believe that early-career opportunities should be meaningful, not just task lists and coffee runs. We want every intern to leave with skills, relationships and a clearer sense of where they want to take their career. We're glad that came through for you, and we wish you well in what comes next.

Thank you for sharing your review, and for recommending CSH to others. We're glad the team has felt welcoming and that the experience hasn't been overwhelming. That matters to us, especially early in someone's career. We hear you on the hours. Tax season in public accounting has real peaks, and we won't pretend otherwise. Our Anytime Anywhere flexible work policy is designed to give associates and interns more control over how and where they work, and we actively look at how workload is distributed across the team. There's always room to improve, and feedback like yours helps us do that. If there's anything specific you'd like to share, your supervisor or an HR Business Partner is always a good resource. We're glad you're here and hope you continue to grow with us!
