KPMG shuts down the week of July 4 and does jumpstart fridays (leave the office at 3p) from Memorial Day to Labor Day

EY shuts down during 4th of July week as well as Christmas week. Don’t know what “jump start” Friday is so I’m guessing we don’t have that - lol!

Same for Deloitte

DT gives a few days but that’s it

Plus the holiday so it is super long weekend. Most take a day or two of pto to make 10 days

I think we had jump start Friday, not sure if it still exists

I think all B4 does the July 4th week shut down. But keep in mind, they also have annual chargeable hour goals. And, taking the week off is hit or miss depending on your client base.

Deloitte does not. Usually have to work 2 days that week

Not a big 4 but Cherry Bekaert has off 4th of July week. And while we dont officially have jump start Friday, i always see many in Tax are signed off by 3pm during the summer.

PwC too
