The RSGUM and RSG Accounting departments are not for top performers.  If you are looking to grow your knowledge, be challenged, and grow professionally, an accounting role at RSGUM or RSG is not for you.

The RSGUM and RSG Accounting departments are for people who never want challenging work.  You will be given many tasks that are easy to accomplish, and you will quickly get bored.  Passion for your work and working to improve processes is stifled at every turn and you will be told to put your ideas aside and focus simply on the easy tasks given. 

Development is about opportunities to expand skillsets and translate those skills into new opportunities.  RSGUM and RSG will not provide you any development opportunities.  RSGUM and RSG Accounting leadership also show no appreciation for your work.  After 6 months, you will be turned off as you come to realize RSGUM and RSG Accounting leadership doesn't ever say hello to you or talk to you directly.  RSGUM and RSG Accounting leadership will not show any appreciation for your work.

If you are a top performer prepare yourself well.  RSGUM and RSG Accounting departments are very frustrating for a top performer because you will consistently be given extra work because co-workers weren’t able to complete it and are never held accountable for completeness or accuracy.

The RSGUM and RSG Accounting departments take employees, especially top talent, for granted.  I would highly recommend you avoid joining the RSGUM or RSG Accounting department.  Do yourself and your career a favor and choose a different company to grow and advance your skillsets.

Working here was alright when it came to the actual job. In general, I love what I do so that was not the problem. Some of the problems I encountered with this job was:

No growth potential. At least, from what I was told, from a knowledgeable person of the job, they do not give annual raises. The HR department didn't even deny this.

The jobs' employees and managers tend to use profanity quite often and it was very unprofessional and even distracting at times.

Employees tend to talk more than work, and it interfered with my work at times.

PTO time taken, was frowned upon. I've been reported for taking PTO for circumstances out of my control and they were not understanding. This included medical reasons.

I was lied to about being placed on probation, no warnings and was out right laid off.  

 Money is typically not my major concern, but I did come from a past job where I made more, therefore, I had quite a few bills to maintain and could not with this job. I feel like they took advantage of me, underpaid me, when my past experienced skills more than met the demands for the requirements. Yes, I took the job, but at the time, I had no choice. 



Upper management don’t care about the employees if you are not a revenue generating position. The business leaders treat corporate employees like animals. They can yell at you in the meetings. The technical departments are extremely under staffed.  No IT support. Workload is extreme. No holiday year end party or appreciation. No continuous education or training support. Basically it is a job for salary. Nothing else you can expect. The company went IPO last year, the upper management celebrated in New York. All the middle and lower level employees got was a corn that worths 50 cents. No employee stock options, don’t even have a chance to buy it with initial price even you work there for a few years. I don’t recommend this company if you are looking for a company that value, respect, and appreciate you and your work.

DEI is for show only , there’s no true diversity equity & inclusion here .

Hostile , it’s not what you know but who you know . Some of the management have no people skills or any knowledge that pertains to their role/ department

What is a typical day like for you at the company?

It’s very white collar corporate, hard for a young person to thrive in that type of environment. It’s very 9-5, show up for your paycheck and leave, which is fine, but there is no fun office atmosphere. Managers don’t appreciate their employees, & if you do a good job, they’ll just throw more work on top of you instead of compensate you. The pay is not where it should be. You do get a raise every year but it’s 2-3%. It’s very repetitive & it’s very boring. It’s an ok job but deff not a place you would want to be stuck working forever.

The management was basically nonexistent and no one would ever answer questions. When you call in regards to HR questions, you only get transferred. You normally end up with having a voicemail and then no return call. The staff is very cut throat with no management to step in and control the bullies. You would have to disclose why you wanted to use your PTO.  I would not recommend working for Ryan Specialty Group.

Managing a team of five who are responsible for AR and AP for eighteen division - at an approx. amount of 10 million a month: 
Current management is good, but due to recent resignations we are going through a management change. The culture is great - it is like working with family.
The hardest part of position is working with an corporate accounting team located in a different state.
The most enjoyable part is working with my great team .

Very white collar type company you are look down on upon senior leadership.  Management does not care about your development or growth.
You are not appreciated by anyone.   The only people respected are higher level execs they treat you poorly here. The culture is not inviting and very uptight.
You will not be happy working here
