The people!
Every thing from keeping us up on all of the changes to consistent timely assistance when we need!
Jim Yard, Jessica Miller and team are first class in everything they do. They are a wealth of experience and knowledge and share that expertise with our Management team and Board. I have worked with numerous firms in my 25+ career and Schneider Downs is the best when it comes to communication, transparency and high-quality work product. We could not be happier with our relationship, and they are a source of strength in our overall risk management framework.
Honesty, Integrity, Professional
Down to earth.
The past year has been the perfect example of what I like best about Schneider Downs. In addition to our recurring annual corporate audit, tax compliance, and employee benefit plan audit / TPA services, SD&Co has provided us with cyber security consulting, breach response, lease accounting software and implementation, and estate valuation services. It is great to know that with a call to one of our primary relationship contacts, we can quickly and confidently be placed in the hands of an expert in any number of financial-related services. Communication and consistency within all SD&Co. service offerings is fantastic!!!
Competency is broad and efficiently applied. SD is a great thought partner and goes beyond keeping score to enable us with meaningful insights.
Good people, firm culture and reasonably priced. It’s also nice to support a locally HQ’d firm.
I love the diversity of the personnel, each one has a unique skill set, and they all care about what’s important…”The Client!!
We have been overwhelmingly happy with the people and services that we receive from Schneider Downs. Not everyone understands the nuances of nonprofit finance, but SD does. While we are required to have an audit and to file with the IRS and Commonwealth, we view our relationship with Schneider Downs as more of a partnership. We are constantly bounces our thoughts off of our SD team for agreement and/or guidance so that there are no surprises on either side. The SD team has been great to work with. They are respectful and knowedgeable about our industry/business and we appreciate our relationship.
Brett Cubellis is the best! He always follows up and is prompt in his response.
