    What’s it like working at PKF Kota Kinabalu?

    AI summary of recent reviews

    PKF Kota Kinabalu offers substantial learning opportunities across various industries, making it particularly valuable for fresh graduates seeking diverse experience. The firm provides strong career advancement prospects for those who persevere, with competitive remuneration including good increments and bonuses. The environment effectively develops self-reliance and independence, which contributes to professional growth.

    However, the firm presents several challenges, including demanding work-life balance with frequent overtime and weekend work requirements. The management style is notably demanding with high expectations, and there is a limited support system for new employees, as senior staff are often preoccupied with their own responsibilities. These factors contribute to a high-pressure environment that may not suit everyone.

    The career in PKF Kota Kinabalu
    The good thingsThis company is suitable for fresh graduates who can endure everything; they are willing to learn and sacrifice all the time from the beginning. It was an excellent place to learn what independence is, and do not expect Seniors and Audit Managers to teach you everything. Instead, they will try to explain once and after that, look for the answer yourself. If you are able to stay for four (4) years, your next career will go higher and higher.
    The challengesI would say good luck, be ready for all the datelines and be ready for the "Bad Temper" from Manager and Partner.

    Terrible partners and managers
    The good thingsLearn to work independently without any proper guidance
    The challengesBad temper of partners and managers. Do not expect there is “human kindness” such thing in this company. They expect you to do all things by yourself without any guidance. They won’t see the hard work side of yours, they only will ask “why can’t you finish your work”. They could assign the job to you today, and expect you to be done the next day. It’s not a good place to stay for fresh graduates as well. This company should think about it why the staff turnover is high over here!
