Over a century ago, in 1923, founders David Anchin, Max Block and Max Anchin launched the firm, with a mission to become true business partners to their accounting clients. Today, we operate from that same set of guiding principles: cover all the bases to gain a full understanding of how a client’s business operates, and identify every lever that drives profitability – all in an effort to bring new ideas and opportunities to our clients.
Anchin’s distinct company culture sets the tone for every exchange and every action – within our organization, with clients and with the community at large. The value we place on each relationship and the belief that relationships well-tended will create the most rewarding – and sustainable – outcomes for all. We believe in taking care of our people through life’s many challenges, however we can. And many times over, we’ve witnessed how that generosity of spirit translates into how our people go above and beyond to take care of our clients.
At Anchin, we’re proud of how our firm has grown. As a high-touch service business, our success relies directly on how well we take care of clients, which means we pay special attention to who we recruit and hire, and how we nurture their progress. If you’re ready to take your accounting career in a different direction, let’s talk.
I came to Anchin in 2017, when I was attracted by the ‘Best Place to Work’ awards that the firm has won, and my experience lives up to what those awards stand for. The people I work with are extremely supportive and instrumental in promoting my growth and success at the firm. ”
What I really like about Anchin is the atmosphere and the people. Everybody is there to support each other professionally and personally. Partners always take the time to answer my questions, and I do the same for all my staff. Many colleagues have become longtime friends, and Anchin is my second family. ”
I joined Anchin immediately following my graduation from SUNY-Oneonta. It was absolutely one of the best decisions I could have ever made. I believe that I am a great example of the possibilities that are available at Anchin. I made partner at the age of 34 and today, serve as the leader of the Firm’s Real Estate Industry Group. I continue to be actively involved in our recruiting process because I know the opportunities that this firm has to offer. Anchin is a great place to call your professional home and build a career.”
Our CultureWe like to say we’re a firm with a heart. We’re proud of the recognition we’ve earned, year after year, as one of the Best Places to Work in New York City, New York State and Best Accounting Firms nationally. Empathy, flexibility, and transparency have anchored Anchin’s great company culture for 100 years, and we’re confident it will serve us well for many decades to come.
We are proud that Anchin’s Managing Partner, Russell B. Shinsky, signed the CEO Action Pledge for Diversity & Inclusion, acknowledging the importance and urgency around addressing inequities in the US. We are committed to taking action to promote diversity in a workplace that embraces differences, welcomes safe discussion about inclusion and diversity and empowers all professionals.
Employees can work seamlessly and produce at the same high level whether working in the office or remotely. We make sure you have the right resources to get the work done timely and efficiently, allowing time to “switch gears” and have fun with colleagues.
In a business that’s driven by deadlines, we’ve found a way to “walk the talk” regarding work-life balance. We offer a host of special perks during busy season and maintain first-rate technology so employees can produce at a high level.
Anchin’s commitment to developing next generation leaders is evident through our firm’s makeup – more than half of Anchin partners started their career at Anchin and have grown with us into the positions they hold today. Our history has taught us, firsthand, how important internal, home-grown development is, and our partners willingly share their knowledge and encourage those at all levels to do the same. At the same time, we rely on those making lateral moves into our firm to share their experiences and teach us what has led them to success. We are always listening and are able to continually grow our learning culture through the experiences of others.
