I have really enjoyed my experience at CFGI, been here for 4 years. Learning more than I did in Big4 by being exposed to so many different technical accounting items, private to public company uplift, system implementation, sitting in controller role. I make more $ than I would if i stayed at Big4, I learn more and work on average 5-10 hours less a week and would be even less if i didnt volunteer for additional work/projects. The OT bonus is a huge difference maker versus Big4 and commission is a nice opportunity. The promotion path from Senior Manager to Partner is definitely on average quicker and more achievable than at Big4.

I work at a public company in reporting. We have a couple of contractors from CFGI on my team. We give them all the stuff we don’t want to deal with. It’s great.
