What’s RSM’s reputation? I was recently let go from PwC and RSM wants to interview me.

Comparable to BDO or GT. You've heard of the big 4? These are the next 3.

Pros: sometimes higher pay, still have technical guidance from national practice, decent technology, international affiliations for cross border work.

Cons (might be pros for the right person) : smaller clients, large private/small public is the niche. Some of their offices are downright tiny.

Don't listen to anything about work life balance. It's hit or miss and depends entirely on your team, office, partner and clients. You are generally more likely to have a better situation than big 4 but that doesn't mean it will be good or even better. Just average will be slightly better.

Source: worked at GT 4 years.

Thanks, I really appreciate the thorough reply. To be honest, those cons sound like pros to me. I did two years at PwC and it really hammered my self worth.

From what I heard their paychecks still cash

Very similar at staff-senior levels. Smaller as you go up.

I worked at Deloitte prior to joining RSM. Pay is comparable to Big4 except don't expect any large bonuses (in fact, only expect small ones, lol).

I’m a senior, and my bonus was 1.5k. DG rating, HCOL

I think they’re a very solid firm. If I decided I didn’t want to do big 4 anymore they’d probably be one of my first stops

If your an experienced staff or senior with hedge- fund experience and want to move to Dallas, DM me to discuss discretely. Honestly great team. Turnover has been low for last 18 months at 10%. Compared to 40-50% in other places. Crazy hours feb-apr, 40 apr-jul, 45 in Aug, maybe 50-60 that last week of aug/ early sept. <40 post 9/15. We have a need at the senior level to fill a gap. Seniors help is needed everywhere so if your interested, come cash in your chips!

Compliance question here, I have always thought of the SALT deduction on the fed return as a perm item & have treated as such in such sch M-3. I see that some people put it as a temp on sch M-3. What is the justification for treating it as a temp on the M-3. You don’t set up a deferred on the def RF for the state tax deduct & it is also a rate impacting item (I know that some temps can be rate impacting). But this all leaves me to side with perm. Does anyone know the logic behind temp treatment?
