Wow OP that's a great idea!i just wish we have a gym at the office or if KPMG subsides a gym membership (wishful thinking)

I wish the firm would actually come through with all the promises of a work-life fit. All the PTO offered sure is nice... if you can ever feel like you can actually take it without having a nervous breakdown before or after that. Also, create a more consistent culture across functions of the firm. Night and day from GPS to Tax, for example.

Hi, I am considering making an appointment with a therapist to discuss mental health, and my question is this: how do you know that your case is severe enough to warrant a therapist’s time? I’ve never been diagnosed with any mental health illnesses but I think it could be something that benefits me. A little advice would be appreciated. Thank you
