Minpunten
The work at KPMG can be demanding and challenging. At times, the work environment can be stressful and extremely deadline focused. The key to being successful at the firm is proper planning and expectation forming. During January through March one should expect to work 60+ per week without the benefit of overtime compensation (although bonuses are paid to those with overtime worked); however, this busy time is offset by the summer months where there is flexibility to use the 5 weeks vacation the firm provides. Although KPMG does have an international infrastructure and the benefits that come with it, at times it can be difficult to carve one's own path and ensure one's personal and professional goals are being met.
