Hello Everyone,

Need more opinions currently a senior auditor with 1 YOE as a senior at a small local firm in LA making 88k with a CPA, I applied to other firms to see whats out there and got an offer to a mid sized firm for 105, but i hear horror stories about the firm about culture and crazy hours and no time off (firm is CLA) any advice anyone?

CLA doesn’t have crazy hours. Think seniors have an 1800 charge hour goal, which isn’t ideal when there are some firms with a 1650 goal, but not the worst either as there are some firms with a similar or slightly higher goal.

A lot of things will be office specific though. The worst thing about CLA is the pay is less than other firms.

No time off would service be line and office specific. I heard of one person in Deals that met their charge goal and couldn’t get PTO approved, but know of someone else in Deals that took a month off after meeting their charge goal.

Unlimited PTO is very common in public, so not sure I would necessarily knock CLA for that. The pay OTOH should be a consideration.

Why are town Hall meetings so impersonal? They are all about awards / the number of people hired. I know FCB health is large, but we never hear from people who aren’t Executives. Last town hall, when discussing inclusion efforts, there were no people of color represented and one of the 4 pillars of diversity was centered around our “reputation as an organization” (that really rubbed me the wrong way). At my last agency those conversations were always led by people of color from every level.
