Sorry for a late response, but hopefully this is helpful. I have experience working at one of the firms that merged into Forvis. My experience was - the project work was great but the culture and work-life balance was terrible. I've been contacted several times since I've left by other people looking to leave because of the culture, so I know it hasn't improved since I've left.

Forvis is made up of several smaller firms that have merged over the last few years. Known more for middle market and small cap audit and tax. Projects and clients will be smaller and their culture varies greatly office to office. Probably would work on a wide variety of Forensic and Transaction projects. Have not seen them in the Forensic space in any of our services.

Have a couple of people who left ey to work there and seem to like it!

So it depends on what part of forensics you land on. Within the Insurance and Federal Claims group the primary driver of work is federal claims. There’s a niche group that does insurance that you can get involved with and it’s a good group of people. Other parts of forensics that are interesting would be valuation/due diligence and investigations. Federal claim work is rather boring and not many transferable skills learned in it from a technical perspective imo

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
