Flexibility and freedom to innovate
Meet Matt Moschetti
Though I most recently come from a manufacturing/technology company, my roots are with public accounting firms. I had become accustomed to long hours, little to no work life balance, and not much variety of projects and development opportunities. While I wasn’t actively looking to change careers, Zeroed-In’s story caught my eye.
The founders also come from the world of big-name firms. It seemed that, like me, they wanted diversity of work, the ability to quickly adapt to changing demands, invest in personal development, and the opportunity to take on interesting and challenging projects. I’m glad to say they’ve proven me right.
Since joining in November 2021, I’ve worked with clients in alternative investment assets, the music industry, and events planning. It’s interesting to work on projects with completely different needs. I’ve been able to perform a lifecycle of items for a client from audit readiness to controllership whereas others have needed technical accounting. In the few months that I’ve worked at Zeroed-In Consulting, I’ve been exposed to a wider variety of client work than in the past few years.
Zeroed-In’s start-up mentality shows itself in more ways than its range of work. For example, I am part of the decision-making process, and my ideas are always welcome no matter how lofty. The company prioritizes a weekly brainstorming session that is very informal, but also highly productive. This is because we’re not just another accounting firm – we are a tech focused advisory group that wants our clients to be one step ahead of a quickly changing financial world. Additionally, leadership really cares about staff development and growth as well. My work week is expected to be less than 40 hours so that I have dedicated time to support whatever will help me, and the company, grow – be it a course, a certification, or just extra time to research a new skill or solution.
Similar to the flexibility with working hours is the flexibility of operations. I don’t face bureaucracy or red tape like I’ve done for years before. If we identify something that is going to benefit us as a company or improve our services to our clients, we are able to pivot and make those changes in real-time. It’s also simple to request time off and the leaders really mean it when they tell you to take it. In fact, I’m even given a travel stipend to further encourage me to unplug from work and focus on my wellbeing. Sure, free lunches and in-office gyms are nice on paper, but what Zeroed-In can offer after not even a year with the company is unbelievable.
I’m fortunate to be part of a small but mighty team led by compassionate leaders. Collectively, we have a common mission – to not only help clients keep up with new technologies and regulations but get ahead of the curve.
