Thomas Benscoter truly cares about the well being of myself and family when it comes to tax prep or financial planning . Every bit of advice he has given helped utilize my income.
Been working with Frank since retirement and he is wonderful at finding good tax solutions and investments. Highly recommend!
After multiple phone interviews (one with the CEO), I was asked to come in to meet with Frank Calise. I have experience working directly with CEOs of $100M+ companies, and from the outside, this company looked interesting.Frank proceeded to insult me repeatedly, attempted to mansplain finance, and push and prod at me until I couldnt take the abuse any longer. His rude and callous demeanor was completely uncalled for and inappropriate.If he is treating candidates like this, just imagine how it is working for him.This type of tone-deaf behavior doesnt fly anymore. There are 310,000 financial advisors in the US. There are free online alternatives to his services and based on their website (which is laughably bad), theyre failing to offer any value to clients that cant be found elsewhere for free. Robo-advisors will invest your money in the same stocks/bonds/ETFs for a fraction of the fees, and there are many safer tax filing solutions that dont require you to work with a sociopath.After doing some research I found that past associates of the firm have terrible reputations in the community. Its clear that this business has failed to keep up with the times, is floundering, and is doomed to remain a sad little tax shop for unsophisticated retirees.
