KPMG in Bulgaria
Pros: Good place to start a career in audit / tax / advisory services. Long hours and lots to be learned. Majority of employees are early to late 20s and can be a fun place besides the heavy workload. Company has a good reputation outside of Bulgaria.
Cons: Long hours and work on weekends. Expectation is that you are always available to go into the office. Flexible working or home office out of the question for most employees. Usually more work than can be done in an 8 hour day but there is pressure not to report full working hours in order not to ruin project recovery rate. Recent scandal with a bankrupt bank involved the firm as they were the auditors of the said bank. Firm was fined by regulatory bodies and now there is significantly less projects and turnover of staff.
