Pros

McGladrey is a stepping stone, not a place where you want to spend your career. McGladrey it is a decent place for the average students to get some experience they can leverage in the accounting industry to get into the big 4. Also, it is a good two year weigh station where good performers from the big 4 can, stop in for two years and bump up thier compensation.

Cons

Career advisor systems is a joke, no advice at all really adn the compensation model is a black box. It is VERY political The company cannot decide what it wants to be when it grows up. The upcoming buy out is going to crimp comensation for the foreseeable future

Pros

If you are in the right team, with good seniors and good managers you will have a good time with the work. Hybrid was a very nice touch, they were pretty good about allowing you your two days at home if you wanted them. Benefits were decent

Cons

Very, very team dependent. A ton of seniors seriously don't want to teach at all. I remember coming up, and even after I was a senior, listening to people complain so much that they got a first year, and they did not want to teach them or didn't have time to. Its a huge popularity contest on if you get good jobs or not. Partners will make you work the most crap jobs and keep all the good jobs for their favorites. They use and abuse people so often. Got laid off 1 day after the busy season.
