Well, At Least RSM Plaza Won’t Have to Be Renamed
RSM US (the firm formerly known as McGladrey) will be sticking around RSM Plaza (the building formerly known as McGladrey Plaza) for a little while longer. Chicago-based RSM US LLP on Tuesday [July 16] announced that it’s renewed its lease at RSM Plaza in downtown Minneapolis. Though the building bears RSM’s name, it’s actually owned […]
PwC Is Raking It In on Old Fraud
As the multibillion-dollar scheme led by Tom Petters approaches its sixth anniversary, the meter is still running for the lawyers and accountants sorting through the corporate empire created by the former Wayzata businessman, and the array of creditors and investors who did business with him.

Caption This: McGladrey Gets the News They’ve Risen to the 4th Largest Firm in Minneapolis/St Paul
Clearly, the excitement over McGladrey jumping one spot in the cutthroat Twin Cities market is palpable: In case you care to add a speech or thought bubble to the photo, here is a good generator.
Grant Thornton Is Movin’ On Up
We appreciate the fact that the firm is enthusiastic about their growth, but this is getting ridiculous: Grant Thornton LLP has relocated its Minneapolis office within the north tower of the US Bank Plaza at 200 S. 6th St. to floors 14 and 15.

PwC Takes Precautions After Email Scandal
We kid, we kid. Obviously this was up prior to this year’s “Rank the Hotties 2010” email got loose as the old logo still lives on in Minneapolis.
Which begs the question, did the Twin Cities not get the memo on the launch? We don’t know if there is an internal disciplinary action for this sort of non-compliance but it does demonstrate a shocking lack of attention to detail.
There Are Some Cranky McGladrey Mofos in Minneapolis
Last week McGladrey announced the promotion of 21 lucky ducks to the big kids’ table. Mining the comments, you would find some indication that even with the 21 newbies, the number of partners is probably a net negative due to “laid off and departing partners.”
We received a tip recently that seems to echo these thoughts, telling us that a number of managers and partners have left the Minneapolis office, including a “head partner.”
We asked around and discovered through another source that this “head partner” was a gentleman by the name of Will Roche, a veteran of the firm:
I am not saying but just saying no one in is happy in Minneapolis. Will Roche was forced out after 34 years
And through another non-McG source we were able to confirm that Mr. Roche is no longer with the firm. So! Maybe it’s a simple case of out with the old, in with the new at Mickey G’s? If that’s the case, is C.E. Andrews next? Dude is pushing 60. Discuss below.
