Pros

Learned what kind of leader NOT to be

Cons

Honestly the only good thing I can say is that I met a few lifelong friends there. Everything else attributed to one of the worst employment experiences of my life. Management is a hot mess operating under the “everything is fine, this is a lovely place to work” facade that recruiting and marketing continue to create for them. Staff is treated worse than larger firms unless you win the favorites lottery. Harassment and poor treatment by managers is basically encouraged by HR and somehow it will be your fault. Raises and bonuses, if they can even afford them, are puny. The benefits are not worth the hours and mental abuse. If you can put up with those things, you might as well go to a larger firm and get something that looks decent on your resume.

Kreischer Miller Response

We are always sorry to hear that any team member has had anything other than a great experience. We encourage open, honest communication with any of our leaders, and try to drive home a culture where leaders know they are accountable to all of our team members. As a Top Workplace, an award that is administered by a third party and based solely upon a comprehensive survey of all of our employees, we invest a great deal in creating an environment where all of our team members feel they have the tools, support, and flexibility to thrive and grow – personally and professionally. We are also proud that, during the height of the pandemic, our partners volunteered to take pay cuts just to make sure we could avoid the risk that the pandemic could have an impact on employment or compensation for any of our team members. As a result of those actions, we were able to pay our staff bonuses throughout the pandemic, as well as raises at the end of the year. We would welcome a chance to speak with you about the specific difficulties you felt you had and invite you to reach out directly to our managing director.

Pros

Firm provides a strong professional environment for people who value structure, accountability and want to deliver excellent client service. The work is engaging and you are trusted to manage complex client relationships with a high degree of autonomy. Leadership encourages thoughtful decision making, collaboration across teams and continuous process improvements. Firm is focused on leveraging new technology to improve daily tasks. I have found managers are approachable , open to discussion and willing to listen when improvements are raised. You will be exposed to a wide variety of industries and situations which accelerate learning and builds a well rounded experience.

Cons

Workload can be heavy mid- month to deliver timely financials , need to keep on top of work daily and plan for future events. Your success will depend on strong organization, follow-through and ability to manage competing priorities.

Pros

Working at Kreischer Miller has been a very positive experience, especially having completed three prior internships before joining full time as a staff accountant. The transition into a full-time role felt seamless due to the supportive environment and strong sense of community within the firm. The company offers excellent benefits and places a strong emphasis on employee engagement, with frequent office events, team lunchs, dinners, and other activities that make the workplace enjoyable and collaborative. The people at the firm are genuinely welcoming, approachable, and willing to help, which makes it easier to learn, grow, and feel comfortable asking questions early in your career.

Cons

At the end of the day it is a public accounting firm, which means the workload can be demanding but with that Kreischer Miller does everything to try to make it so that you can still have a work-life balance.
