Tax Department Needs Help

Pros

Green Hasson Janks helps to pay with the medical insurance, life insurance, phone bill reimbursement, and gym membership. Many of the people below the partners/principals take the time to teach and guide you as you start. Entry level staff will learn a lot and are expected to come with a sense of urgency to learn. People can work from home most of the days.

Cons

The current tax department needs major improvements to fix the problems that has rose. Most of the workers talk among one another and feel that the partners focus more about meeting their revenue goals than fixing the employee's morale. Even though the most recent reviews may look great on the firm, there needs to be more representation of how the tax department is. Within the past 6 months, there has been a great deal of turnover. This is due to the fact that there has been a shortage of workers, no regards for a person's work life balance during the off season, no consideration of the worker's workload/schedule, and to top things off no luck in finding quality hires. Sure, it's public accounting and the hours are expected, but if the tone atop thinks negative about the situations arising, then the workers will react negatively. Additionally, management needs to take a look at the workers there and appreciate what they are doing/have done for the company. This past tax reason review resulted in high turnover and poor compensation. It's unfair how things are said during the evaluations/round table meetings; especially since the criticism and reviews spread to people outside these meetings. One last thing, there has been a number of complaints regarding the tax scheduler. The partners may not see this, but they need to really bring this to attention.

Going backwards on DEI - bad HR management

Pros

Remote work Free coffee, soft drinks and snacks

Cons

Aa soon as new CPO started, minorities have been let go. It only takes one look at his own department to see how white he's turning the HR office. His diverse employees are leaving, he's hiring friends and people that look just like him. And he claims to be a DEI champion. If it weren't because he's not the one hiring in the tax and audit department, more people of diverse background wouldn't stand a chance. To firm management - please hire people who walk the walk.
