      Pros

      Pursuing a career in public accounting is challenging and rewarding. At Sweeney Conrad you receive support from people at all levels of the firm. It is comforting knowing that partners are invested in your development and want you to succeed in your career. Partners are easy to talk to and genuinely care about the employees of the firm. Superiors are excellent and sharing knowledge and advice, so I always feel like those ahead of me care about my success. I truly enjoy working at Sweeney Conrad and all of the people I get to work with. This company is going places and I am very excited to be a part of it!

      Cons

      Hours are long during busy season, but that is expected in this industry.

      Best Accounting Firm Out There

      Pros

      That said I would never work for an accounting firm again because I don't enjoy being pressured to work 300 hours a month during busy season. Sweeney Conrad has a great family feel, management is very nice and supportive, I learned a lot, they have great events and constantly provide meals and snacks.

      Cons

      I don't understand the mentality of accounting firms that they think they should work their employees to the bone. I guess because they all do it so why wouldn't they take advantage of that? The idea was that you work like crazy during "busy season" for three months and then the rest of the year is a breeze and that's why they don't hire more associates because they have so much less work the other nine months of the year. Except it just isn't true, I was slammed year round with work it was just that much worse February-April. Also, the difference between the employee's billing rate and their hourly rate is kind of stomach wrenching. They pay quite well and give out bonuses and raises often but the amount they work you makes the hourly rate lower than a job in a comparable industry.

      Pros

      A great place to practice in public accounting. Technically challenging and interesting work, a plethora of opportunities to shine a grow, accessible partners/management and a diverse and fun staff group. This firm really care about their employees and treats them well. There are a lot of team building activities in the summer and even fun things happening during the busy season. There is also a lot of opportunity to volunteer and give back to the local community. Management doors are almost always open and there is a concentrated focus on continuous improvement. Parking is free and right outside the building!

      Cons

      This is public accounting. There are long hours during the busy season but you can expect that anywhere. If you do good work, people want to work with you and you sometimes get overloaded.
