CBTax Reviews

Before taking on this position, I had a long standing position with a consultancy business. I joined CBTax for hands on consultant experience but also with the intention of returning to my previous role once I had gained experience after 18 months. I set my own career in reverse joining this firm. It doesn't have a good reputation across the country and I've actually had to remove it from my CV. My own experience was fine. I have heard horror stories from people who had been around this scheme since the beginning. I received a copy of the CBTax v Chloe White case from an anonymous email less than a month into the job - someone had given my email out which worried me. I read most of this and it was very concerning. The whole thing did not sit right with me and this stemmed back to the Chloe White case. What kind of business was this that puts a woman through this?

The culture can feel a bit performative. Lots of smiles, but not always a sense of genuine trust. Management interactions felt unpredictable. You might leave a conversation reassured, then later…… Overall there’s constant eggshell-walking, anxiety, and a general “don’t say the wrong thing” atmosphere. It left me feeling pretty shaken.
