After a round of recruiting, I got an offer for CohnReznick's affordable housing practice as an experienced audit associate. Interviewed with a partner and some managers. Everyone seemed really chill and still seemed to be working from home.

Any impressions of the group or what people do after a stint in affordable housing? I heard the work is high volume but generally pretty easy to follow.

I can’t speak to that particular group but I can tell you that CR is a good firm. Solid overall. I’d give it a shot. Feel free to DM me if you have any firm specific questions

Also, I think the PTO is fantastic. 20 days off for associates, 25 for seniors, and 30 for manager and up. And we get the entire week of 4th of July, the entire week of thanksgiving, and about 8 other holiday days throughout the year. Very generous PTO. Plus 401k match, $1000 into an HSA if you choose high deductible, and they’ll pay for your advanced degree if you give them a certain amount of service (JD, Masters, etc)

One other thing I wanted to note - if you’re concerned about your experience getting too niche with this particular group, you could ask to be put on a rotation with another group to see other industries for a period of time (after completing 1 year of service). Your team may be more willing to do this rather than you leaving their group entirely.

Heard that group is bad because it too specialized and won’t be good for your exit. Do some research on fishbowl about that group, i remember seeing someone talking about.
