Can anyone share how KPMG’s deal advisory team is specifically on the accounting advisory side at the senior manager and director levels? Hours/WLB, remove vs in-office vs hybrid, pay, team/culture, overall satisfaction

I was at the senior level but obv worked with a lot of managers and directors. I’d say wlb is decent up to the manager level. (Obv project dependent)

Once you get to director it is pretty bad. I didn’t know any directors who weren’t pulling around 60 hours a week on a consistent basis.

Been in AAS for 3 years and the variance is too high to give you a useful answer. Some directors I've worked with really care about their WLB and don't go over 40 hrs unless necessary, some directors work 50+ hrs year round. Unfortunately the latter is more common than the former.

Hours - project dependent
40% in office at Director. Goes to 60% at PMD
Pay is not great, but probably better for external hire
Culture depends on office but I think we have a good team
… are we hiring? That would surprise me
