Fed up - a sign of the times - Recensione dipendente - Associate Director presso KPMG

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
