Intern Reviews
- “Everybody in the office is very personable, and they loved answering any question I have had with anything work related or about the accounting field in general. Work hours seem to be great; everybody has agreed when I have asked them about this. PKF has a great work/life balance as well; once you finish your work for the day, just be ready to start up again the following day.”
- “Everyone I have met and worked with has been incredibly kind and helpful. From the fellow interns to the partners, I have had the opportunity to have conversations and get to know everyone a little bit. I am never made out to feel stupid for questions I ask, and my supervisor is always there to assist if I need.”
- “Everyone in the office is great, they treat everyone with respect, they make jokes with one another and laugh. Also, supervisors and partners show you why you have to do things, what you did wrong, how to correct it, and let you shadow them to see what they do in their day.”
- “The culture of the office was great. Everyone was friendly but also knew the work had to get done. Everyone was also extremely helpful, and the hours were never overbearing. They understood I had class and were supportive of that.”
