"I love the pressure of the day to day work, Knowing your work is important to others doing their job well is satisfying. I take pride in my job and my work reflects that. With responsibilities comes added stress. That is only normal; everyone goes through it. It's those who overcome difficult situations who become stronger. I cannot say I hate anything about my career at this time."

Senior Accountant at Baker Tilly
in Minneapolis, MN

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"This place has gone down the toilet over the last 5 years!!"

What do you like about working at Baker Tilly?

"I like the people. When everyone feels they are getting screwed together - it is a bonding experience."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I think it's a great place to do an internship, becuase you'll make your $20 an hour and hit overtime by Wednesday. However, if you plan on having a family life at all. Trust me when I say you'd be better off at ANY other accounting firms, including big 4 firms."

What don't you like about working at Baker Tilly?

"Unfortunately I could go on forever. I can't explain the number of 90 hour plus weeks I have had. They will work your fingers to the bone. I ended up leaving (still staying in public) and was able to get a a 15% raise and MUCH better hours. They are all about the mighty $, they don't give two S*^$ about you."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Treat your people right and the hard work will follow. I don't think there is much to say, they know they are paying for their mistakes. They must have one of the highest turnover percentages out there right now. Yet there are some partners that are still in denial. Admit you made mistakes, then move on."
