Intern Reviews
- “Firm culture is great; everyone is very helpful and it is common for higher level management to interact with associates and even interns. As an intern, it was not an issue speaking with Partners to high level firm members, where they provided mentorship and guidance.”
- “As soon as I stepped into the office, everyone was very friendly and welcoming. I was introduced to everyone on my team, and people continued to walk over and introduce themselves. I feel very included here. There are also fun events on site and off site.”
- “Baker Tilly's culture is inviting, inclusive, and supportive. I have never doubted my colleagues' abilities to help me out in times of need, or felt like I didn't belong or wasn't smart enough to be there. From the associates to the partners, everyone was welcoming and approachable, and most of all, humble. I was required to work 40 hours a week, but we had intern events almost every day, and volunteer activities as well. BT gives 2 hours of holiday time every Friday since we have half days, and then 1 Disconnect Day where we get the entire day off. I was always taught to get my work done quickly and well, but never at the expense of my health or capacity. I was never given more projects than I could handle at once, but I was still challenged with the amount and difficulty of work given to me.”
- “The company culture within this office greatly exceeded expectations. The current employees are happy to help and seem to have created good rapport with one another. In addition, company-wide 'bonding events,' such as trivia after work and stewardship week are encouraged to all employees and were fun to participate in! The office is generally lax on time keeping and dress code however all employees display great professionalism.”
Getting Hired Here
- “Seamless, quick correspondence over email with a recruiter and virtual interview with a level of management. Interviewers were friendly and professional. Standards of selectiveness are high. If you show initiative and willingness to grow and learn, you are a candidate they want and are willing to invest in.”
- “The recruiter that I worked with was phenomenal and has been very helpful before and during my internship. Compared to other firms I have interviewed with, the process is similar and consisted of a spotlight day followed by multiple interviews (a mix of phone and Zoom interviews).”
- “HR contacted me with a phone interview, then I completed a three-person interview in intervals of 30 minutes. Interview was the easiest/most comfortable I have ever had. Everyone was so kind, and it felt more of a conversation than an interview.”
- “The whole hiring process was very easy and comfortable. You get to talk to the people you will be directly working with, which helps foster a sense of belonging.”
