Avis généraux sur l'entreprise KPMG
3,0
Productive
I work for two large teams in an extremely busy tax department. My role is varied with tasks such as e-travel, diary management, billing, typing of letters, reports, producing PowerPoints and arranging seminars.
Outside my core role I am a Charity Champion, this involves communicating to the entire Birmingham office, arranging charity events/seminars and being responsible for the collecting and banking funds.
Working for a large company and the roles I undertake, I have learned to communicate to a wider audience, be part of a larger team of individuals and have become experienced with a wide range of systems.
I work closely with my co-workers to ensure that we all have good working relationships, this enables us to assist each other and cover in their absence.
I arrange regular meetings with my core departmental managers, this not only maintains a good working relationship but also gives me an understanding of what they’re currently working on and discuss ways in which I can lighten their workload.
I would say the hardest part of my role would be working with individuals who are not team players but I work to overcome this by having regular meetings.
I enjoy the variety of my core and non-core roles and getting involved with events both inside and outside of work
Points positifsFree lunches, benefits

I just thought it was horrible
It's not the worst of the big 4 but that doesn't make it good. I felt utterly unsupported. Junior staff have to source their own work which is fine but if someone doesn't like you they can absolutely sabotage you with respect to getting work and if you're not getting enough work you risk losing your job. You need to stay reasonably late just so people think you're keen - I've seen people stay and do nothing, but because they stayed, some how that looks better. Some managers are nice enough but some are just snakes - there are two kinds: those who are clever and can navigate the snakes and some people who progress with no talent because they are utterly cut-throat. As a person with integrity, I made sure I left as soon as humanly possible.
Points positifsDecent canteen, benefits are ok - pretty standard
Points négatifsIt's a snake pit
