Do you have a hobby/personal passion?  
When not spending time with my wife and 3 kids, I enjoy running.

What was the best advice you’ve ever received?  
I have received a lot of good advice, but something that sticks out is: the night before I started at Schneider Downs (my first job after college) my dad said to me “make sure that this is something that you enjoy, because you will be working for the next 40 years”

Who is your role model?
I have multiple role models. Nobody is perfect. I try to duplicate the positive attributes in people and learn from their flaws.

What was your childhood dream?
To be a trash man (the guy that rode on the back of the truck).

If you could go back in time, what advice would you give your college self? 
Invest in Facebook

People would be surprised to know that I…
Vended cotton candy and lemonade at Cleveland Indians games (1997 – 1999)

What is the best or most interesting thing about your career?   
I started my career (August 2001) at Schneider Downs and my parents have sent a cake to the office for my birthday every year.

What was your first job?   
I was on the maintenance crew and picked up trash at Blossom Music Center.

When you have an hour of free time, what do you like to do?  
Watch poker on TV and play poker if I can get more than an hour of free time.

Do you have advice for young professionals?
Meet as many people as you can and make connections. You never know where they will end up and what they will be doing in 10 to 15 years.

Big Problem: Organization Severely Impacted By Covid-19.


Big Thinking: Identify And Claim Over $1.1m In Refundable Credits.

With over 14 years of experience, MATTHEW WERNER is a tax shareholder with expertise in serving public, private, and emerging global organizations. He has worked with domestic and global clients in numerous industries including transportation, manufacturing, technology, and healthcare.
During frequent communication throughout the pandemic, Matthew realized one of his clients was struggling with a significant drop in gross receipts. Matthew and his team continually monitor legislative tax changes and noticed previously excluded organizations that received PPP loans and were now also eligible for employee retention credits. “Once we noticed an area of opportunity related to the Employee Retention Credit, we were able to calculate the credit available while navigating PPP forgiveness to ensure maximizing both programs,” said Matthew. “In the end, we identified and claimed over $1 million in refundable credits and the clients were thrilled.” Schneider Downs provides Big Thinking and Personal Focus in delivering a variety of services for large and small businesses, both publicly and privately held, as well as nonprofit organizations, government entities and more. Through our commitment to thought leadership and knowledge management, we deliver the solutions our clients need with a personal commitment to service.
