KPMG reviews

It has a strong Brand Name globally Good learning opp, if you are not from Big4

- Decent Starting Salary - Excellent Benefits - Attentive Management - Good training Opportunities - Low-No Travel Over and again I read how others are dissatisfied with Big 4 accounting jobs due to the number of hours required and the work/life balance. If you think a work week should be 40 hours and that you should be compensated at a higher rate of pay for 'overtime', you'll find KPMG 'demanding'. The fact is that if you are looking for a 40 hour/week job, join a union and become an employee in a different industry. Better yet, come and work for KPMG and start complaining about the hours - it'll make me look good. Read a little about successful people and their workloads when they were young. 40 hours/week? Whatever. Personally, I don't blink at a 50-60 hour work week. After all, there are 168 hours in a week. If I work 60, travel another 3 hours to and from work, and sleep 56 hours, that leaves me 49 hours/week for personal time, or 7 hours per day. That's more than enough time for me to have a strong social life.
