Vantaggi
Got my start at Crowe Horwath and am thankful I had the opportunity. The people are great, the company provides an abundance of free food during busy season, they push working from home occasionally, and my busy season hours usually topped off around 55 hrs. / week. PTO policy is somewhat generous at 4 weeks and I never had any issue using the time.
Svantaggi
While I got lucky with my busy season, most of my coworkers were working 60-65 hrs. / week. Compensation seems to be roughly 5% under market (there was no pay bump for being promoted to senior, just the normal merit increase). Hated the open office concept that got introduced in late 2016. Morale seems to be in turmoil and there's been a lot of turnover at the staff / senior staff level from old coworkers I've talked to.
