Culture & Perks
ASI is a relationship-based firm, placing a strong emphasis on client services and relationship-building. Employees at all levels are expected to be problem solvers, creative thinkers and engaging advisers to their clients.
As a small firm, ASI has created a workplace with a "small-business" feel. A strong non-corporate culture creates a friendly air of flexibility, allowing associates to buck the typical chain of command. Accountant regularly work in one-on-one situations with partners, managers and clients both in the office and in the field, and are constantly encouraged to take on additional responsibilities and to grow both within the firm and along with the steady growth of the firm itself.
Unlike some larger firms, ASI does not treat its employees like expendable drones who can be burnt out and replaced. A typical day ranges from 9:00 AM to 5:30/6 PM, and Accountant can expect a busy-season that is significantly "milder" than that of a typical "Big-4" employee. ASI's busy season is generally limited to January 15th - April 15th, and includes working Saturdays from 9 AM to 3 PM, and late nights to finish work. It is important to the firm that employees are not forced to sacrifice their personal lives for 1/4 of every year. Employees, particularly Associates and Accountant, are a long-term investment, and it is the firm's goal to create and nurture an environment where accountant can lay out and follow a clear career path as their experience and knowledge-base continues to grow.
