Working Hours at KPMG New Zealand

While you can often choose when to do the hours, quite often the hours need to be completed, sometimes even more than booked.

I generally work my contracted 37.5 hours. There is flexibilty if I need to start finish early/start later on days where I have other commitments. Overall haven't had to work much overtime unless there is a deadline approaching. Overall very happy with my workload.

I have worked some big weeks while being at the firm but I never feel like it has been beyond my limit or too much. Our team could be more flexible on the hours you work during quieter periods. For example, if I have come off a 4-8 week patch of long weeks and then have a couple of quiet weeks, these could be spent finishing slightly earlier some days and not staying online

Flexible

Very flexible. If you are getting the work done and meeting your required hours, they are more than happy for flexibility with the hours you work.

Flex work policy Can negotiate flexiable working arrangements with management

Very flexible in working in the office or from home. Will depend on client but the flexibilty is very much welcomed

Can be flexible but definitely end up working longer than 9-5

very flexible - company focuses on the result rather than the effort it took to get there

Very satisfied. My portfolio is very well set up and the teams are well oiled so therefore we have minimal overtime. If we do have overtime that is done with no bad feelings as the work just has to be done.

DUring end of financial year it sis expected that we work additional hours to be able to complete the work, outside of this time work hours are flexible with little overtime expected

Lots of unpaid overtime during busy season but good finishing times outside of that

I work 37.5 hours a week, for me there isn't much flexibility in changing the amount of hours I work, but they are very flexible when I can start and finish my day. As long as I am doing the right hours they are happy.

My engagement teams are very flexible with where and when I work at current.

I feel that I am never expected to over work during the periods where we don't have an deadlines and I feel that KPMG is very flexibile in order to meet other commitments as I feel that I am never forced to work more then I have to and everyone is accepting if I need to leave a bit early or come in a bit late or work from home.

Mostly work 37.5 hrs per week. Sometimes I do more without additional compensation.

Most weeks it is the standard 37.5 hours. 8-10 weeks requiring 40-45 hours with 2-3 weeks requiring 55-60 hours depending on client needs.
