Uppers
Moss Adams is a great company and I hope to be a part of the company in the near future. The employees are friendly, fun, and very helpful, especially to interns. Some of the best aspects were the Intern Road Shows, the SIP Kickoff, and definitely the other interns that start with you, as they are really cool people with great personalities. My career advisor and buddy are always there to assist me when I need them and are always willing to take me out to lunch so they can get to know me. I also want to highlight the amazing events Moss Adams hosts throughout the summer. It's a great way to meet staff members and other employees. Another excellent perk is the great break room. The food and drinks they offer are awesome and the best part is they are free! Moss Adams is a great company to intern/work for and I am very grateful for the opportunity. Last, but not least, is the clients that we work with. They are mid market companies that have a similar culture to Moss and I think that makes it a pleasant experience. While on a client, I learned a lot and my co-workers were always willing to help and answer the 100s of questions I had.
Downers
The one bad thing that I would mention about the company was the lack of work for the interns. We would often see ourselves getting bored because we didn't have any work to do. Other than that, everything that Moss Adams offered was great!
Advice to Potential Interns
As a recent college graduate, I wanted to find a company where I could make a difference and be noticed and I think I made a great choice when I decided to intern at MA. As you may know, MA is not a member of the Big 4 and this does not mean that you wont succeed or that this company isn't great. I chose MA because of this. After going through the summer leadership, I learned that it not being a member of the Big 4 made it that much more appealing. MA being a mid-market firm, there are a lot of opportunities to move up the ladder and that's definitely what I was looking for as a young professional. I wanted a firm where I just wasn't another number. Another major deciding factor was that MA cares so much about its culture as a firm and the employees it hires. They want you to succeed as an individual and they want to provide you with the resources you need to improve and move up in the working world and they do this by helping their employees the best they can. MA is very flexible in terms of transfers to other offices and transfers within departments in the same office. They make it so seamless and this is because they care a lot about their employee's experience.
