Is it just KPMG or every other company that is hell bent on improving its diversity ratio? No offense to women please.
But it's like KPMG can't compete with other Big 4 in revenue part so trying beat others in diversity area and be the "Best employer for women"

MBBs, big4, ACN they all do the same. They have definite priority for women. The JDs clearly spell out diversity preference nowadays. At deloitte I've been at the receiving end of this rather unfair supply demand dynamics.

Hey all, I’ve recently joined EY consulting from another Big 4 and have noticed there’s no discipline (at least in my team) around codes and charging time. People either charge a standard 7 hrs or some will charge time spent on internal activities to their client code.
