Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current

Audit Associate
Pros: Almost no hierarchy, can stop by a partner to discuss any issue
Helpful colleges 
No bonuses but a great overtime payment! You get paid for  every extra hour you work extra (full time working week 40 h, which rarely happens in auditors life). Payment depends what kind clients/engagement you have. If everything runs smoothly – no so much overtime money but less stressful environment.
Cons: Huge personnel turnover and always understaffed 
Even if they have good learning opportunities there is ongoing reduction in learning development /education (a lot of online courses now) 
No possibilities to get ACCA through KPMG
Stressful assignments due to low budget 
Promotion to Senior Associate after 2,5 years (meanwhile in other cities in Sweden after 2 years) 
Not competitive salary comparing to the marker. A month salary could be increase approx. 30% if starting position as  Business Controller at any other company in Sweden .
