Dislikes

My experience with KPMG has been disappointing due to several major concerns. 1. Poor Management: The firm’s leadership lacks transparency and strategic direction, resulting inconsistent politics and unclear communication. 2. Lack of job security: Employment stability is minimal, with decisions about staff retention appearing arbitrary and lacking clear justification or proper process. 3. Authorization Decision-Making: The organization operates under a top-drawn approach, where decision made by single individual must be followed without question, leaving no room for discussion or employee input. 4. Unfair termination process: there is no proper protocol while removing employees. feedback is either lacking or completely ignored, and terminations often occur without warning. and the HR policies are very poor. At least HRs just go by the words of the higher management. 5. Salary manipulation post-termination. After termination, the firm manipulates salary settlements without any transparency leaving employees confused about their final payouts. 6. Poor technology infrastructure: Overall, I would not recommend this firm to anyone seeking job security/ Stability, fair treatment or a supportive work environment....Read More

I am writing to share my recent experience with the KPMG Global Services recruitment process, specifically for the position of Associate Director in the Technology Services department. My joining date was scheduled for November 2023, and the entire process spanned approximately four months until the offer was released. During this extensive period, I underwent two job changes. The first was with NNN Technologies, where I left due to a significant mismatch in the job profile. Despite formally resigning, I did not serve the notice period and did not obtain an experience letter. The second job was with SSS, a reputable product company, offering a good job profile but with a package less competitive than what KPMG has offered. Throughout the KPMG selection process, I transparently communicated to the recruiter about my previous company, NNN, explaining that I left on less than favorable terms and lacked an experience letter. Initially the recruiter highlighted potential issues with Background Verification (BGV) if I were selected. In response, I expressed my hesitations and made it clear that I would not proceed under these circumstances. However, the recruiter later informed me that the management had granted approval and there would be no BGV concerns related to NNN. KPMG typically conducts BGV checks before the joining date, a standard practice. In my case, I insisted on resigning from SSS only after the BGV was successfully cleared to avoid surprises later on. However, the recruiter disagreed, claiming it would be too late to resign once the BGV was completed. Despite spending four months on the recruitment process, the recruiter urged me to resign from SSS without waiting for the BGV results. Regrettably, I agreed and resigned from SSS, trusting the recruiter's assurance that everything was in order. Since I was just one month into this company and was in enabler phase, my manager there released me in 1 week instead of official 1 month period. To my dismay, a month later, the recruiter informed me that BGV had failed, citing negative feedback from NNN as the reason. This revelation left me jobless, having believed in the recruiter's earlier assurance that the matter with NNN had been resolved. I share this review not only to express my disappointment but also a cautionary tale for fellow candidates considering opportunities at KPMG. My intent is to encourage individuals to exercise caution and seek written confirmation from the recruitment team before making any decisions, learning from the mistake I made. If you or someone you know is contemplating a role at KPMG, I strongly advise approaching the opportunity with caution and ensuring clarity in all communications with the recruitment team. Thank you for taking the time to read my experience....Read More
