Pros

Pay is adequate and raises are more common than not. An average annual raise is about 3%. The firm offers reimbursement of professional necessities such as networking events and CPE.

Cons

There is a diseased corporate culture. Despite spending 7 figures on a consultant to improve the culture, the problem has not been fixed. The tone at the top is pure greed; therefore, employees are only valued as cogs in the machine. There is no human element to the culture. If you produce bucks, great. If you don't, the shareholders do not care "why". Your family and your health are not the firm's priority. The only priority in life is the firm.

Thank you for sharing this, and congratulations on completing your internship with us. Hearing that it was a strong learning experience is exactly what we hope for. We put real thought into how we structure our intern program because we believe that early-career opportunities should be meaningful, not just task lists and coffee runs. We want every intern to leave with skills, relationships and a clearer sense of where they want to take their career. We're glad that came through for you, and we wish you well in what comes next.

Thank you for sharing your review, and for recommending CSH to others. We're glad the team has felt welcoming and that the experience hasn't been overwhelming. That matters to us, especially early in someone's career. We hear you on the hours. Tax season in public accounting has real peaks, and we won't pretend otherwise. Our Anytime Anywhere flexible work policy is designed to give associates and interns more control over how and where they work, and we actively look at how workload is distributed across the team. There's always room to improve, and feedback like yours helps us do that. If there's anything specific you'd like to share, your supervisor or an HR Business Partner is always a good resource. We're glad you're here and hope you continue to grow with us!
