Significant opportunities to grow your career Opportunities to work in multiple fields across many platforms

There is a lack of consistency across engagements. Working as a fractional accountant feels like have 6 or 7 part time jobs with different managers, cultures, and expectations

Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and balanced review. We truly appreciate your recognition of the professional growth opportunities at Citrin Cooperman! We also value your candid feedback regarding consistency across engagements.

Your perspective highlights an important reality of this model, and feedback like yours helps us continue refining how we support our professionals across different engagements. We are consistently focused on strengthening alignment and communication, both in how teams are supported and how expectations are set, while preserving the flexibility and extensive experience that many of our team members find so rewarding. Thank you again for sharing your experience and for contributing to the ongoing conversation about how we can continue to grow and improve as an organization.

Pros

The pay is decent and if you work for a good company inside Citrin that got acquired, it’ll be fun. You’ll have the small little community but the culture is slowly dying each year with all the acquisitions going on. You’ll get chances here and there to win a gift card and that’s it. Another pro if you’re leaving is there’s tons of clients you work on that you have connections with, so you can probably work for them after. You can also work remote

Cons

The clients think you only work for them. They’re demanding, which makes the managers (some are actually nice and push back to clients) even more demanding and question you why you didn’t meet their unrealistic deadlines. You’re telling the workers in India what to do repeatedly and the client gets charged an insane amount for all the work. They stack an insane amount of clients on you because it’s “great experience” and leave you to figure everything out. The work is basically messy every month, but it’s ok as long as citrin is profiting from it. One point that everyone at this company agrees with: IT is nonexistent. Accounting or doing your work is not the hardest part here. IT basically goes out of their way to block every site and download so you can’t do your work. You either have to find loopholes or just be stuck in onboarding forever because IT doesn’t want to do anything. If your company gets acquired by citrin, it’ll be downhill from here and good luck to you.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We want to be absolutely clear: we do read these reviews, and we take them seriously. Feedback - whether positive or constructive - is an important part of how we continue improving as a high‑growth firm, and we never dismiss the perspectives of our team members. We’re glad to hear you’ve had positive experiences with compensation, remote flexibility, and the sense of community. At the same time, we recognize that rapid growth and integration can create challenges, and we are continually investing in processes, training, and support structures to ensure our teams feel equipped and supported. Regarding client expectations and workload, we understand that the accounting industry can be demanding. We are actively working to balance client needs with sustainable workloads, and we’ve expanded training, staffing resources, and management support to help teams navigate these pressures more effectively. Our India-based team is also a valued part of our organization, and we are committed to ensuring that collaboration is efficient, respectful, and aligned with client expectations. Specific to your comments about our IT function, our infrastructure is designed to protect client data and meet strict security standards, which can sometimes mean tighter controls. Even so, we are actively making investments to further scale our IT stack as it's a top firm priority. As for acquisitions and culture, growth inevitably brings change, but it also brings opportunity. We are committed to preserving the strengths of each acquired firm while building a unified culture that supports collaboration, development, and long‑term career growth. We appreciate your honesty and your contributions during your time here. While we may not agree with every point, we value the opportunity to listen, learn, and continue improving. Our door is always open for direct conversations, and we encourage employees to share feedback through any of our internal channels so we can address concerns in real time. Kind regards, Citrin Cooperman's Human Resources team
