Pros

The people, hands down. RSM has some very talented individuals and I feel very fortunate to say that I go into work each day looking forward to interacting with my coworkers.

Cons

Wages are not exactly adequate with demand for chargeable hours. At times the firm promotes "balance" by encouraging employees to take time away from the office, but in reality, there is no possible way to meet the administrative parts of the job, meet charge hour goals, and have time away from the office. Many firms have optional or part-time Fridays during the Summer... this is not the case at RSM. In fact, quite the opposite has been occurring this year (I have worked the past two weekends in July on both Saturdays and Sundays to make up for time missed during the week for life events when in most other situations, PTO would have been the route to take).

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.
