Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"KPMG should be your last choice. KPMG ranks the 4th in the Big 4 and I suggest going to other Big 4s who are more competitive!"

What don't you like about working at KPMG?

"The politics, the back-biting, the first impressions, the lack of good technology used in audits, the numerous binders used during audit."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Buy a good audit software so the company can be paperless. All Big 4s have great audit softwares, giving them flexibility, efficiencies and ease of audit. Instead of firing people, forcing them to resign so they have an image of not firing people in the market. Judging employees by how long they work vs how efficient they are. These are areas to improve on."

"Highly respectable global firm with diverse opportunities."

What do you like about working at KPMG?

What don't you like about working at KPMG?

"Sometimes felt like it was a 'revolving door'; potential for overtime and traveling; however, I was fortunate to have most of my work assignments locally and my overtime was minimal. However, one trip I made in particular was to Houston that involved Enron, right at the time of all their publicly reported problems. I was a part of history (so to speak) as I can say I was there on a project for a time leading up to the day they closed their doors for business."
