MarksNelson Advisory named to ‘Best Firms to Work For’ list by national accounting publication

Overland Park, Kansas (Aug. 20, 2024) — Local accounting and financial advisory firm MarksNelson Advisory continues to be recognized as one of the best in the nation — this time by Accounting Today, a leading provider of business news for the accounting community. The publication named the Overland Park-based firm to its list of the 2024 Best Accounting Firms to Work For.

The annual list includes the top 100 accounting employers in the U.S. based on policies, philosophy, practices, demographics and employee satisfaction, collected through a management survey of HR practices and an anonymous survey of team members.

This is the second year in a row MarksNelson Advisory has been named to the prestigious list.

“This award is a direct result of the talented professionals on our team and our shared commitment to creating an exceptional firm culture,” said Josh Beck, Managing Partner of MarksNelson Advisory. “We truly care about each other, our clients, and our community, and we look forward to continuing to grow and thrive together.”

MarksNelson Advisory was recognized not only for its exceptional employee benefits, pay practices and demographics, but also additional programs offered to team members, including coaching, performance management, leadership development, internship development, and more.

High marks were also achieved on the employee survey that focused on eight major areas: Leadership & Planning; Corporate Culture & Communications; Individual Role Satisfaction; Work Environment; Relationship with Supervisor; Training, Development & Resources; Pay & Benefits; and Overall Engagement. The employee survey accounted for 75% of the total evaluation.

The firm received particularly high scores in several areas, including Relationship with Supervisor (99%), Work Environment (98%) and Training, Development & Resources (97%). Other key takeaways include:

• 97% of team members reported the organization’s leaders care about their well-being.
• 95% of team members ranked personal job satisfaction high.
• MarksNelson Advisory’s benefits plans scored in the top quartile of firms of a comparable size.

The ranked list and an in-depth report will be released by Accounting Today in September, both online and in print.
