Employees say:
"Team members are given every opportunity to succeed and pursue personal passions. Leadership encourages team members to seek these opportunities and provides the executive support needed to accomplish a pursuit. Recognition is given to those who excel, and mentorship from multiple levels is provided for those growing their careers."
Employees say:
"RSM cares about its employees and is very flexible when it comes to where you work and the hours you work. They are a very caring and inclusive company that values their employees and it shows with the way they treat us. They have a big focus on work life balance and understand that we have lives and families outside of RSM and they encourage us to enjoy our lives outside of work."
Employees say: "Although I only started five months ago, everyone who I have interacted with in the company has gone above and beyond to be welcoming. The people of RSM are what make it so special in my opinion. There is no such thing as a dumb question, and managers are understanding that there is a learning curve to a lot of the work. Overall, I feel like the company is invested in me as a professional and as an individual, and is an outstanding culture to be a part of."
Employees say:
"I really appreciate that RSM offers paid parenting leave for foster parents accepting a new placement. I haven't heard of any other company that offers this benefit and this has been hugely helpful in balancing my parenting and work responsibilities."
Employees say:
"The culture is unmatched. The people here embody the culture and really live out our values and goals. When I have a question or need help there hasn't been one person who wasn't willing to help point me in the right direction."
Employees say:
"A lot of companies say they care about the well-being of their employees and the communities we live and work in, but RSM is the first company I have worked for that really demonstrates they care — between consistently sending employees surveys requesting their opinions on topics before making decisions, to our community and volunteer initiatives, they demonstrate that they do really care through action, not just words."
The assurance, tax, and consulting service continues to expand support-program offerings to its more than 17,000 employees. Building upon its already flexible workplace culture, RSM surveyed staff and decided to set no limits on remote, hybrid, or in-person workdays.
Launched in May 2023, the Women in RSM series, in conjunction with the firm’s 10-year-old culture, diversity, and inclusion celebration, spotlights women within the organization to make them feel seen and supported. Sponsored by its ¡Hola!, InspirAsian, and multicultural employee network groups, RSM’s conversational language program’s second cohort launched in July 2023 with the goal of increasing linguistic proficiency among staff who work with international clients.
RSM is a signatory of the CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion initiative and selected six participants last year to work alongside other firms in the creation of public policies and corporate strategies that promote racial equity. Four fellows are participating this year.
RSM’s annual stewardship campaign, the Power of Love, selects local youth-focused charities to volunteer for and support. The 2023 campaign raised more than $4.7 million, bringing the grand total raised to more than $41 million, which has so far been distributed to 760 charities.
At audit, tax, and consulting services provider RSM US, the well-being, training, and development of its more than 13,000 workers is a top priority.
- RSM US reimburses staff for childcare and other dependent-care costs accrued when they must travel or work beyond their regular schedule.
- In 2022, RSM US began offering staff access to Modern Health, a platform where employees and their families can receive one-on-one mental health coaching and clinical therapy, as well as find self-directed digital programming and community conversations.
- After initiating several policies meant to improve employee work-life balance during the pandemic’s height, RSM US has further expanded many of these programs, including self-managed time off and caregiver leave.
- RSM US launched the RSM Excellence Academy in 2022, which aims to boost professional skills among college students from underrepresented communities, such as those of Black and Hispanic heritage.
- “I can work the hours that fit my life as long as it is reasonable and communicated to those I work with,” one RSM US employee said. “This allows for making personal life appointments as needed without adding stress so I can take better care of myself, making me a better employee.”

"RSM US is the first company I have worked for that really demonstrates they care. Between consistently sending employees surveys requesting their opinions on topics before making decisions, to our community and volunteer initiatives, they demonstrate that they do really care through action, and not just words."
Employees say:
"I've had the opportunity to work for small- and middle-market accounting firms over the years, and RSM US LLP is by far the best firm to work for. That feeling of belonging is at the forefront, and I feel that I'm making a valued contribution. RSM's diversity and inclusion culture is unmatched when it comes to other professional services firms. I'm so proud to be a part of the RSM family and so thankful for the opportunity."
Employees say:
"The people are great and the company has a great set of values that everyone follows. This makes working at RSM a real joy."
Employees say:
"The culture that's been created here is amazing. Everyone truly wants to help you succeed and work with you to ensure your personal life and work life are aligned."
