Plante Moran

Employees say:

"Plante Moran's culture is unlike anything I've experienced. This past year, my daughter had a health scare and we spent 8 days in the PICU. My team not only took care of all my immediate responsibilities, but they also took the time to reach out to see how we were doing, provide words of encouragement, and even sent my family a gift card for meals while in the hospital. The support I felt during this time meant the world to my family and me. There wasn't a single day that I worried about what was going to happen when I returned to work. It is so refreshing to work for a firm that prioritizes their people and their families."

Employees say: "This company is very flexible in allowing people to chart their own path. Many of our partners have changed roles, teams, and focus areas throughout their careers at the firm, and they are generally very open to staff doing the same. I think this is a unique benefit, particularly in the accounting/finance world."

Employees say:

"The culture of this company in being open, honest, and transparent, while providing safe spaces to learn and grow is like something from a storybook. I'm so proud to come to work each day and really value the time I get to work with this team. We innovate and create on a daily basis, and I really feel like every person is given the chance to create the best version of themself, their talent, and their success."

Employees say:

"Plante Moran provides significant work flexibility. My partner allowed me to work from home and assigned me projects that I can work on remotely during my pregnancy and after my maternity leave."

Employees say:

"The concept that the whole person comes to work is central to how we do business and there is a focus on always doing the right thing for our staff and clients. That looks like being able to share successes and challenges in personal lives, staff genuinely care about each other and check on how others are doing during challenges."

Employees say:

"The culture at Plante Moran is truly unique from any other company I've worked for. The friendly staff and Work Life balance have created a positive change in my personal life that I am truly grateful for."

Employees say:

"People are accessible and approachable regardless of their role; I do not need to schedule ahead of time to meet with supervisors or partners. There is also an implicit trust in employees to get the job done, there is a fair amount of flexibility with working from home vs. working from the office, and employees can work when it best fits their schedule, within reason."

The audit, tax, consulting, and wealth management firm based in Southfield, Mich., has relied on its DEI council for more than two decades to position Plante Moran as a leader in promoting diversity in the financial services and accounting sector. 

That commitment extends outside the office, too; Plante Moran has made efforts to engage with high school and college students across the country, including hosting students from seven high schools on the campus of Michigan State University to hear from accounting faculty and Plante Moran staff. When the firm learned that one of the schools wouldn’t be able to attend because of budget constraints, Plante Moran paid the transportation costs, enabling 43 additional students to participate and learn more about career opportunities in public accounting.
