Vantaggi
KPMG is a worldwide brand and offers opportunities to pursue many different career paths. The umbrella of services is categorized as follows: Audit/Advisory/Tax. Personally I am in International Tax. Specifically, KPMG offers many opportunities to grow by providing opportunities for international rotations, ease of lateral movements to the other service areas such as advisory and audit. KPMG leadership always keeps us abreast of industry news that affect our services, keeps an open line of communication to senior level executives and encourages us to think outside the box and provides many avenues and trainings for professional development.
Svantaggi
Employees at KPMG are highly knowledgeable and very hard working. Job demands as it relates to tax are very high. The regular work hours are usually 8:30-6 or 7 PM even during off-peak seasons. Everyone works hard and has extremely high expectations but managers are fair and reasonable with work load. The point being if you are looking for an 8-5, this may not be the right place for you. However, if you are committed and dedicated to work as hard as required you can guarantee you will be rewarded fairly in regards to compensation and bonuses. During busy season Jan-April 15th, I have worked 830-12 AM for 4 weeks in a row. Saturdays are mandatory during busy season and usually require 6-8 hours of work.
