Professional & personal development

No matter if you want to run a 10K, develop your technical, leadership or networking skills, or just get to know other young professionals, you can reach your goal at Watkins Meegan. Our professional and personal development programs help ensure our staff has every opportunity to succeed.

Professional Development
Each year, we offer more than 100 courses related to the accounting industry – from preparing 1040s and 1065s to developing your business and networking skills. Employees can grow their skill sets and they have the opportunity to teach classes related to their areas of expertise.

Women’s Leadership Initiative
More women are graduating with accounting degrees than men these days, and Watkins Meegan has committed to the professional and personal development of its female staff. Through the Women’s Leadership Initiative, we’ve established internal networking groups, offered professional development seminars tailored to women in leadership roles, and showcased the exceptional female leaders at our firm.

Young Professionals
Social events, community involvement and professional networking are all part of our young professionals program. At Watkins Meegan, we understand that bringing together our new staff members not only builds friendships, but also develops leaders.

Health and Wellness
Discounted gym memberships, group fitness programs, health and diet tips - these are just a few of the benefits of Watkins Meegan’s health and wellness program. Our employees also participate in firm-sponsored sports team and health initiatives, including our pedometer challenge and Weight Watchers groups. These alternative health benefits help our employees relieve stress and get to know their co-workers outside of the office.
