SD Mayer, a Springline company

We have been working with SD Mayer for over 30 years for matters related to Tax, Financial Planning, Succession Planning, Financial Statement review, Executive Consulting, and everything in between. Steve is one of a kind and has helped us overcome many business challenges over the years. His team members are exceptional in both their knowledge and willingness to go the extra mile. I highly recommend working with them if you are looking to establish a long term partnership.

I don't leave reviews usually but after my experience I felt the need. SD Mayer made my life hell for six months. I hired them and they completely screwed up my books. Mind you my books were already screwed up which is why I hired them, but they became way worse once SD Mayer came on board. I managed to straighten out the original books in about 6 weeks. What was done to them after we brought SD Mayer on took me 6 months to correct. When I told them what they had done, I was told to concatenate (Google it if you don't know). So you know, I'm not an accountant, and definitely not a controller. I am clever though, and I did hire them to teach me how to be a controller for my small business. However I didn't expect that after 5 months of teaching, I would be left with a database in shambles, a looming tax deadline, and employees that no longer respected me, but hell, I love a challenge. Over the next 6 months, after I was told to concatenate, if I reached out with a question about a transaction they put in my system I always received the same type of answer "I don't know" or "I didn't do that" or "Sometimes we do that.....". The transactions are literally timestamped with there user credentials. In the end, I was told it's my systems fault. To which I say, a poor craftsmen blames his tools. Hopefully my experience is an exception, because I wouldn't wish what I went through over that 6 months on anyone. However, to be fair, I am capable of handling the controller duties now. So if your a sadist and want to become a controller, give SD Mayer a call, but make sure you ask for the "Ivan" course. Otherwise they may just help you, and not make your life a living hell. Sincerely, Ivan
