Pros

Novak Francella performs full-scope audits, payroll compliance reviews, and tax services for Employee Benefit Plans, Non-profits, and Labor Unions. The firm likes to hire from within, so working hard the first two years can get you to the Senior Audit roll and beyond. The firm hosts various events throughout the year like Phillies baseball outing, annual golf outing, and happy hours.

Cons

There are many personalities at the upper management and partner level. This results with inconsistency in engagements and inter-office arguments, which reflects poorly from the top down.

Pros

HR advocates for employees and clearly explains your rights.

Cons

I recently worked at Novak Francella and had a disappointing experience. The turnover rate is alarmingly high, which speaks volumes about employee satisfaction. Management tends to micromanage every aspect of the job, making it hard to feel trusted or valued. Training is virtually nonexistent, leaving employees to figure things out on their own, which adds to the stress. In particular, the partner managing the PCR department is incredibly unprofessional, creating a toxic environment that only worsens the already solemn and miserable atmosphere. To add insult to injury, the salary is low considering the demanding work and responsibilities expected from employees. Lastly, the company often requires in-office attendance without any clear reason, further diminishing morale. Overall, I would not recommend this position to anyone seeking a supportive and rewarding work environment.

Pros

Free lunch once and a while

Cons

The culture is very clique like and some Seniors/Supervisors don’t know how to teach Staff .Also be prepared to be thrown under the bus by few select Seniors/Supervising Seniors. They know who they are. Lastly, don’t be fooled by the Hybrid-model. Most management will require you to be in office even when it’s not necessary . Most of the management are workaholic controlling types, yet never provide enough assistance when out in field.
