Actively applying for new experienced audit Associate positions at Mid-sized public firms. Currently working in the Big 4 and covid has really shown the firm’s true colors—they don’t give a sh*t about the employees. Been looking at CBIZ and Marcum.. any other suggestions? Located in Boston/Providence area. Thanks 🙏🏼

Why not BDO?

BDO handled the Covid situation terribly. Multiple people have put in their notice from my office and more soon to follow. I would not suggest wasting your time with BDO

Cbiz in Boston and Providence is great. COVID and being entirely remote is tough but they are doing a good job handling it

Great to hear! Thanks 🙏🏼

Didn’t all the midsize firms cut pay almost immediately?

Oh okay I was just thinking of this. I suppose it depends on what is “midsized”
