Jack and Tyler Working

Wendy Peterson, Supervisor

“I love participating in the outings Vrakas hosts for employees every year, including the golf outing, Brewer game and Volunteer day. It has been a great way to get to know my co-workers outside of the office and build camaraderie.

Jack Covek, Supervisor

“Working at Vrakas has been very fulfilling. Over the last couple of years, I have gone from someone who completes a small part of the audit to coordinating and helping others through the process. It’s been amazing to see my own personal growth through my time at the company.”

Erek Lehnen, Senior Tax Associate

“Vrakas creates multiple avenues for learning and development. While we work long hours in the offseason, the company culture and environment helps you push through the 4/15 deadline. I also enjoy the wide variety of activities and events that Vrakas holds for its employees, with one of my favorites being the Brewers game and tailgating.”
