Employee Reviews
- “Frazier & Deeter has a strong work/life balance. The most I've ever worked in a week is only slightly above 40 hours. It's very rare that we work above 40 hours per week. We also have unlimited PTO and regularly go on team lunches and outings. I feel valued and respected by the people and leadership.”
- “Overall, I think the firm has great quality of life. Sometimes scheduling causes some people's busy seasons to be extended, and it can get tough to find balance during busy season. But the firm really does care about you as an individual, and leadership tries to ensure that everyone is helping to make busy season a little bit easier.”
- “Overall the firm places an emphasis on work/life balance and truly puts in the effort to create a community across firms. Sometimes the element of work/life balance is spoken more than it is represented, meaning the expectation of work completion is at a higher standard than what is attainable in the week's allotted hours. But even so, there's an element of understanding across management that everyone is doing the best they can.”
- “Busy season can create long days, but it is very reasonable for the field. I feel like I can go home after I have finished work and unplug and rest. They encourage ample vacation time during off season to help rest.”
Getting Hired Here
- “Interviews are usually with three different people in the department and include an office visit along with lunch. The interview process goes pretty quickly. Ideal candidate depends on the role.”
- “Our recruiting team and employee-interviewers are quick to respond to candidates and strive for a short time frame to hire. Ideal candidate is somebody who enjoys being part of a team and investing in relationships while being detail-oriented and having appropriate technical skills for level.”
- “The firm's interview and callback process was smooth. The ideal candidate Frazier & Deeter looks for is a team player who buys into the culture of working hard/play hard as well as a culture of curious and ambitious business professionals who value balancing work with their personal lives.”
- “I had four interviews in three weeks, and everyone I spoke to was easily accessible. The ideal candidate is hard to put into words, but just someone with a passion to contribute to a client’s (and the firm’s) overall well-being, however that looks to them.”
