Best Places to Work
Our ability to maintain lower than industry average personnel turnover is a result of many programs we have put in place to create an excellent work environment at Alpern Rosenthal. Our corporate headquarters has been named as one of Pittsburgh's Best Places to Work by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and we were the highest ranked accounting firm in the Medium Category. Alpern Rosenthal placed third in the medium-sized category (50-500 employees) and was the highest ranked accounting firm on the list.
In addition, we were named one of Pittsburgh's Best Places to Work by the Pittsburgh Business Times. Alpern Rosenthal was the highest ranked public accounting firm on the list and the only one to win this award in two consecutive years. These awards recognize our efforts to create a work culture that offers work life balance, innovative human resources programs and job flexibility.

Honoring our Practice Development Program
Alpern Rosenthal has been locally and nationally recognized for a program which encourages practice development among all employees and allows each individual to create a practice development program that fits their interests and strengths.
