Pros

McGladrey is like a normal CPA firm. Different variety of basic and complex work to gain lots of experience. CPA Reimbursement.

Cons

Definitely no work like balance. Work is not evenly distributed. Some people get more work than other. Compensation still not up to level with competitors.

McGladrey in Boston is a horrible place to work.

Pros

I worked with many great people over the years. You will come accross some very smart and wonderful people.

Cons

Unfortunately there are just as many unpleasant people working there, people who expect you to do there job and your own. Senior management is not supportive. The Boston office environment is cut throat and there is a great deal of back stabbing and management trying to shift blame down on to their supervisors, seniors and staff. Do not expect to have a life working here, however also expect to be given ridiculous expectations as far as budgets and lack of help. This is the worst work experience I have had in the past 20 years. When I began at McGladrey I did not feel this way, and I can only speak to the Boston office environment. Working in this office is a thankless job where nothing you ever do will be good enough.

Pros

Semi valuable public accounting experience. Can free coffee/soda be considered an actual pro? At least I still receive a paycheck.

Cons

Company is CHEAP. Morale couldn't possibly be much lower. Turnover is very high. Unable to provide quality services to clients due to a lack of sufficiently skilled resources.
