Avis généraux sur l'entreprise KPMG (Minneapolis, MN)
2,0
Job without challenge with poor upper management, assured of certain hours without ever mentioning a relocation. Great co-workers.
As has been typical of Big Four public accounting firms, the hours were many more than I had been told they would be - 60 hours a week. Shortly after joining the firm, I was asked to begin helping the Kansas City and Omaha. I was asked to begin flying to Kansas City bi-monthly and it ws likely thst I would be asked to relocate.
Aside from the forementioned, the Partner I reported to, waa located in California resulting in lack of mentor, guidance and ability to understand the volume of the workload and the enviroment of both our specialty area and the office

Great People
Of all the Big 4 firms I've worked for or had as my auditor, KPMG stands out as the most pleasant of them all. The culture is one that includes, not ostracizes it's staff, seniors and managers. As a leader in the firm, I was given carte blanche access to whatever I needed to improve the lives of the staff/seniors/managers working the very long hours during the first few years of SOX attest.
Like all Big 4 firms, your rise and support in the Firm is wholly dependent on your Partner counselor who can make or break your rise.

Excellent learning opportunities with a difficult work-life balance.
