Our strategic engagements are often surrounding operational and financial reporting which commonly emphasizes forecasting, profitability analysis, process improvement and data analytics.
* We have offices across the country, with our headquarters located in Philadelphia and a significant presence in the Chicago and Denver markets; however our team members historically, and currently, are welcome to work remotely/virtually from anywhere in the U.S. provided a willingness to travel on-site to our various client locations on an as-needed basis.* You will develop collaborative, lasting professional and personal relationships with clients regardless of your level and provide valuable services as a genuine trusted advisor.* You will have the opportunity for substantial professional development. There will be variety in the clients and situations that you work with that will build upon your current experiences.* You will work in an environment and culture where your efforts matter to our team and clients. The work that you do is highly valued and appreciated by our clients.* We offer a unique and comprehensive compensation package, including a consistent track record of maximum bonus payout and an upside in compensation when our practice exceeds its annual financial goals.* Promotions and career advancement are based on ability and talent, not tenure - our merit-based promotions provide opportunity to accelerate your career trajectory.* Our unique approach to practice and client management offers opportunities for autonomy and predictability in schedule from week-to-week, as well as reduced travel compared to industry standard - allowing our people to better plan their work activities and personal lives.* We place significant emphasis on the value of personal time. We understand that professional opportunities and advancement are important to you, but that time for family, friends and personal pursuits are essential to your life and overall fulfillment. Making sure that team members have flexibility at work, opportunities to enjoy evenings and weekends and to truly disconnect for holidays and time off is critical to each team member's professional engagement and personal well-being.* When times get tough, we get tougher - and we stand by our people. We had extremely high retention during the pandemic - and we maintained our regular cycle of compensation increases and paid out substantially full bonuses to our team members throughout the uncertain time.* While we want our people to stay with our firm for their entire careers, we are also realistic.
