Why working with us

Leading with ESG

Our country’s many economic and social challenges demand deliberate and immediate action. Based on the input from our people and our continuing legacy of community involvement, we put a stake in the ground and began the process of exploring and championing a continuum of ESG-focused solutions. This included a series of eight firmwide ESG focus groups with our people to help the firm develop a comprehensive ESG strategy as the road map for our efforts moving ahead. 

In conjunction with our own ESG initiatives, the firm is also laying the groundwork to deliver strategies and services that can help our clients pursue their own ESG pathways. This includes the roll-out of an assessment process that helps clients develop a strategic framework for ESG decision-making.

Sustainability

Sustainability in Our Offices

Beginning more than a decade ago, CohnReznick began taking steps to reduce our impact on the environment. Some were smaller steps, while others were much larger. They included the following: 


  • Creating a paper-free, electronic document processing system covering most of our tax and audit work, our proposals for new engagements, and the brochures and sell sheets we provide to prospective clients
  • Ensuring that all retired technology equipment is e-wasted via a certified Green Recycler
  • Storing more data on the cloud, which results in smaller server rooms and HVAC systems and a reduction in energy consumption 
  • Providing electric car charging stations in select offices 
  • Donating furniture and other items that we no longer need to schools, not-for-profit organizations, and/or recycling them to minimize waste 
  • Reducing the number of copiers by approximately 50% and the number of printers by approximately 30% when an office relocates 
  • Only using recyclable products when single-use items are required 
  • Recycling coffee grounds and K-Cups 
  • Programming printers to print double sided to minimize paper usage 

We continue to consolidate our offices where appropriate and centralize our people into larger urban centers that provide them with mass transit options and/or commutability from multiple locations. As examples, we combined three offices in the Hartford-Springfield metro area into one new office in downtown Hartford and consolidated two older New Jersey offices into one new office that is easily accessible using mass transit or personal transportation. 

Other real estate-focused initiatives include: 


  • Seeking LEED certified or Energy Star rated buildings, as well as working with architects and builders to use environmentally friendly and/or recycled products for our interior designs. LEED certification is a globally recognized symbol of sustainability achievement and leadership
  • Reducing our overall square footage and modifying configurations to create more collaborative, shared spaces. Within the past few years, we have reduced our overall square footage by more than 330,000 and intend to continue to reduce our square footage going forward
  • Requesting that landlords install new restroom fixtures designed to conserve water when flushing and performing hand hygiene 
  • Developing workspace reservation programs to provide team members with flexible workspace to meet the needs of the day and reduce wasted space when employees’ desire to work from home or a client location
  • Using LED lighting fixtures, daylight harvesting sensors, and light control systems to reduce energy consumption


Community & Impact

VMA@CR

The mission of VMA@CR is to create a home for veterans, military, and affiliates (VMAs) within the firm and promote professional growth and development in an environment where everyone feels included and where everyone can thrive. We do this by supporting, guiding, and elevating their careers, increasing camaraderie through networking, and bridging the gap between civilian and military life.

Inclusion & Diversity

Executive Women’s Forum (EWF)

EWF provides a platform for women business executives to connect regularly, share meaningful experiences, and build mutually beneficial relationships through a range of local events and industry-related activities.

Gender Pronoun Guidelines

In 2020, CohnReznick introduced a firmwide guide to inclusive pronouns and identities to recognize that referring to an individual using their chosen name and pronoun demonstrates respect, acceptance, and inclusion. 

With pronoun use embedded throughout our daily interactions, every CohnReznick employee can communicate their preferred gender pronoun through their email signature and in other places as well.

Inclusive Events Policy

In 2018, CohnReznick implemented an inclusive events policy to ensure that all events CohnReznick hosts, sponsors, or participates in include (a) at least one woman or BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, Person of Color) on each panel or as moderator of the panel, or (b) 25% of the presenting team for events that do not use a panel format. Our Inclusive Events Policy covers both CohnReznick hosted events (internal and external) and third-party hosted events.
