useful for some learning, but do not waste the time to stay long
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Image for the CV, nice and smart collegues, fast-minded people
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
profitabilty incentives for the management that causes unacceptable behaviour of the managers towards the staff,
HR is just to get enough fresh meat to compensate for the losses of people
Verbesserungsvorschläge
People would probably stay longer if they are more fairly treated
Arbeitsatmosphäre
All depends on your manager you need to work with. There is a large variety, though due to the nature of work and compansation (bonus driven) the culture suffers of unacceptable behaviour.
Kommunikation
Required communication is managed also by central functions, so this is quite ok.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Your collegues will mostly be smart people, particular on the non-management level.
Work-Life-Balance
You will need to work much more per CHF.
You will do overtime whenever your manager wants, you will be asked to go to the client even your definitely sick, and on top of that you have to compensate (in case there is no work) whenever your manager wants. - your desires? no not much room for that.
BUT: in case your profitable, it works as anywhere else: when you quite you suddenly get lots of choices offered :-)
Vorgesetztenverhalten
You will find more people you won t enjoy to work with stay at KPMG at Management Level.
Interessante Aufgaben
You get typically interesting jobs.
Gleichberechtigung
Much more performance driven atmosphere, which is good, also for women.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Normal conditions, though compensation in the industry will mostly be better
Image
Image is fantastic. So make use of it and quit your job when you have seen it and before the behaviour of your manager causes you to think of yourself you are stupid. The name has some value in your CV.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
You only get further education in case there is no way around. It is just cost for them and most probably you won t stay long.
Umgang mit älteren Kollegen
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Gehalt/Sozialleistungen
Arbeitgeber-Kommentar
Thank you for your comment. I am very sorry to hear about your opinion about KPMG and our culture. Well educated employees are important for KPMG and our clients and we invest a considerable amount of money in further education on- and off-the-job. Each year more than 150 graduates and young professionals start their career at KPMG and train themselves to become Certified Accountant or Certified Tax Expert. We are aware that after some time, more experienced employees decide to continue their career outside of KPMG. The positive rehiring quote, however, shows how attractive KPMG is as an employer. I would like to discuss your perception in more detail (+41 58 249 34 07, dsommer1@kpmg.com). Such a discussion will of course be confidential.
Kind regards, Daniel Sommer
