Pros

For most of the years I was at Moss Adams, I was very happy. Great and caring culture, innovative, strategic, and high focus on both clients and the talented professional team. All roles and departments were respected.

Cons

Over the 12-18 months leading up to the Baker Tilly merger, the culture shifted. There were decisions made, and activities going on that just did not make any sense - at least in the context of staying an independent firm. The employees found out about the merger, not from leadership, but from the Wall Street Journal. Management instantly scrambled to respond, trying to ease frustrations and surprise without actually saying anything. Poorly done. From that point forward if felt that people were no longer the top priority. It felt as if we were hearing intentionally spun and half-information with agendas. The Moss Adams leadership kept pushing the "merger of equals" line, but it was clear that the firm was being acquired, and the Baker Tilly side was calling all the shots. I left shortly after.

Pros

About the only pros I see from this company was remote work and benefits. You did have some good employees.

Cons

The organization struggles with significant management and cultural issues despite stated diversity commitments. While diversity initiatives exist, they have inadvertently created siloed groups that prioritize in-group interests over collaborative team culture. Reports to HR and anonymous reporting channels regarding discrimination and workplace concerns often went unaddressed, undermining trust in leadership. Substantial disparities exist in how different teams are treated. International team members, particularly those in India, face excessive workload expectations—regularly working 12+ hour days, extending until midnight or 1 AM US time. This creates an unsustainable and inequitable work environment. Leadership has not been transparent about offshoring strategies. While the company denied plans to move work overseas, Indian team members received extensive training while US-based employees did not, suggesting contradictory long-term planning. Recent layoffs have raised questions about decision-making criteria, with highly skilled contributors, and just good people over all being let go while some underperformers and rude, bad leaders were retained, potentially due to favoritism within management cliques. The company's stated values around diversity and inclusion are not reflected in day-to-day operations or management decisions. Significant improvement is needed in leadership accountability, equitable treatment across all locations, and transparent communication about business strategy.
