NOT RECOMMENDED - Accountant Freemark Financial Employee Review

Pros: - Great entry way for new grads: If you put in the work, management is there to support and teach you the ropes. The firm is small enough that you can ask for support from anyone: Partners/managers/account managers/bookkeepers/etc. You must be willing to ask, because everyone is there to help - especially if you're experience is more green. Good mix of green individuals and accomplished/seasoned staff. - HR is extremely helpful. They are very understanding if there are things outside of work that may occur - like running late, needing to WFH, etc. This is a PRIVELEGE, and not a right - as I am referring to situations that happen every once in a while. But you can tell that they care about their employees situations and find appropriate solutions to support their staff. - Work/Workload can be challenging at times, but if you use the right resources and communicate effectively - it can be very gratifying. This may depend on an individual's perspective on whether or not this is a pro, but having that opportunity to take on challenges is a great thing in my book. - Beautiful Office in Beverly Hills, well supplied with snacks and beverages, Wine Wednesdays and occasional Happy Hours are a plus.

Cons: - Less of a con, more of what you should expect in this line of business - it gets extremely busy during tax season. You must be able to manage your priorities. But when communicating with management - they support in mitigating your list. Either taking some tasks off your workload or seeing if there are ways to make your work more efficient, etc. But this is key as to why I believe in the Leadership at our firm - they know when to accelerate or hit the brakes and, most importantly, will take the time review your processes and see how you can be more efficient in them. - Wish we had more presence on social media/linkedin/glassdoor etc. I've had lots of growth since starting at Freemark and am very proud of being apart of our little community - thus the reason I wanted to make this honest review in 2024 for any job seekers looking into the company. When researching Freemark while I was going through the interview process, I couldn't get much current news about the firm (im assuming due to the implications of COVID), so I hope this review helps.

good salary, good coworkers, nice office, hybrid work

impossible standards, emotional and egotistical leadership
