SA @ KPMG - "FSS / Advisory / Customer & Ops" - Charlotte, NC

Wondering about WLB. I've read everything here and it seems varied. My question would be, as someone with two young kids, how flexible are the hours? It's a WFH position but want to know if I'll be able to pick or drop off the kids at school when needed, etc. Is it something like as long as I can attend my meetings and perform my duties type of deal or am I expected to be in my office chair for the duration of my work hours? Thanks!

Depends on your engagement team. I’m in that practice, work 30-40 hours a week. No problem taking PTO and taking care of the things in life if I let my team know.

I work in the Cap Markets team but your profile fits with a lot of the new hires I’ve seen. They place a lot of value on prior FS and military experience, seeing you have both gives you a good chance.

Bridge between Customer Support and Product Design?

Hiya! I am in the final round of interviews at an EdTech platform for a role that is the bridge between the Customer Support and UX/Product Design teams. I act as that bridge in my current role but on a more informal basis because it is a smaller company.

Would anyone be willing to share their perspective (positive or negative) on the Product/UX end of this relationship? I want to make sure to ask the right questions.
Thank you!
