Beware of the fake employee reviews. Here are the facts about Calvetti Ferguson - Anonymous employee Calvetti Ferguson Employee Review

It looks like several of the recent reviews for this firm are fake- notice how they don't have a single con they can come up with? I spent about two years with this firm, and here were my observations: -Annual turnover was about 50 percent, and the vast majority of this was people being fired or quitting before being fired. I can only think of a handful of times that someone left on good terms. After firing people, it was common for the firm to try and fight the unemployment claims even when it seemed there was no basis for doing so. -The firm has been continually shrinking. A decade ago they had nearly 100 people, today they have less than half that. But you don't have to trust me on this- the firm has fallen in the Houston Business Journal's ranking of accounting firms over the past two years. -When I joined the firm they had a generous bonus structure in place so that if you had a certain number of billable hours in a month, you'd receive a cash bonus. In order to save money, they've raised the targets so high that you almost never hit them. The firm also shifted from a low-cost 401k provider to one with very high fees in order to shift the plan administration costs on to the employees. -IT at this firm is a joke. They took away our perfectly functional laptops and gave us tablets running Windows 8. Of course, they chose the absolute cheapest tablets they could find and made the change right in the midst of busy season. The whole rationale was that this was supposed to make us more "mobile" and "lightweight", but instead of carrying one laptop and an extra monitor, we now had to carry the tablet, two monitors, a wireless keyboard, a wireless mouse, and a docking station to plug in all these devices. Since the tablets were cheap pieces of junk, they could never stay connected to Wifi and we'd frequently lose work or have to twiddle our thumbs while IT tried to fix it.
