Is A&M still worth it? I’ve heard chatter about how they’ve hired a ton over the past couple of years, reducing the amount of overall hours across available headcount. Thoughts?

We’re up 16% on cash collection and 33% in total production. We will forever make more than B4 at all levels, offer better growth opportunities, and have a better culture. We all came from B4 and know the differences pretty well. Please DM me if you have questions

Which firms do you think are best positioned for the future? It ain’t the Big Four… 🤷‍♂️

🥱

Will be interested to see what tech tools A&M can deploy over next few years. Are they investing as much as B4 in tech?

It’s a good point. We are investing a lot and trying to see what works best. Hoping we find the right tools to keep making us more efficient. We can never hire quick enough to meet our growth, so more tools are definitely welcomed.
