      Worst Place to Work - Tax Associate (Consultant) KPMG Employee Review

      1.0

      Pros

      Good name on resume - probably only pro

      Cons

      The GMS - Mobile Consulting Services is horrible. First off, the team is made up of Type A personality, NJ women. Very aggressive, immature, childish - as if they never left high school. All they do is gossip about one another, cause drama, talk behind people's backs. One employee's close family member passed away - they did not let her take off two days, "only one day as per procedure." This place is absolutely disgusting. They abuse their team, everyone is treated worse than dogs. The name on the resume is not worth the hell you will go through in this place. THREE PEOPLE LEFT IN SIX MONTHS.

      Pros

      A lot of smart people to learn from

      Cons

      A lot of people leave. Utilization is also a dumb metric now with how much money they are dumping into their AI. Work is getting done quicker, hence less hours are being charged even when busy. Margins are consistently up despite hours being down so I don't get the need for higher utilzation KPI's anymore. On top of that, managers make you "eat" your chargeable hours to stay within their very small budgets now too, so utilzation does not really reflect anything meaningful anymore. Commercial consultants work 1.5-2x more than federal consultants but federal consultants are usually 100% utilzed because they must use the full budget despite the work not taking as long/as stressful of deadlines.
