Sinking ship - Accountant Hall Chadwick Employee Review

- The staff turnover is ridiculously high, it was very common to see one staff member in the business services division leave every week. - The firm has about 12-15 partners, of those partners only 3 of them have decision making power due to how the firm was set up and the distribution of equity. - Pay is below market rate across the board. - Resistance to change. When I arrived I was told that they had made a transition away from paper and were looking for everything to be done electronically but every desk was filled with paper. Partners even asked for electronic work papers to be printed out and reviewed. - Public shaming of staff- very common to see partners come out and yell at staff members. My advice to the partners would be maybe take them to your office instead of yelling at them in front of there colleagues? - The client base is a mess, nearly every job you are given has been completed incorrectly the previous year or has some sort of issue with it. Very common to see false promises being made to clients in which employees can't deliver on because of the workload they have. At Hall Chadwick clients aren't retained, they are poached for a year, become disappointed in the service they are given and leave soon after. - No appreciation of staff and there efforts. Very common to see staff working until late at night and even coming in on the weekends to try and get work out but no matter what you do it isn't enough. - There is no guidance. A manager will be lucky to last 6 months at Hall Chadwick before leaving. How can staff members develop with no manager or when a manager leaves after 6 months?
