Current Employee - Auditor in Leeds, England
I have been working at KPMG full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Constant progression if you want it
Great support through ACA qualification
Great team of motivated people
Support available when you feel overworked
Good expenses policy
Cons
Can be very challenging to keep on top of work
Lots of driving. Little to no control over where you need to work
Difficult to have commitments outside of work due to length of working days and need to work/study on the weekend
The matrix team structure means jobs constantly overlap. Can be challenging to manage your time.
Advice to Management
Allow for more time on each audit
