AVOID AT ALL COSTS - Senior Associate Kroll Employee Review

*******************RED FLAG - DO NOT WORK AT KROLL********************* I want to make it clear that I am reviewing Kroll - which is by and far the worst company I have ever worked for. Duff & Phelps is a totally different world and I can't honestly say I know about it. Where do I start? Kroll has absolutely no work-life balance. Relative to the pay, the hours are absolutely brutal. You can set boundaries as much as you want, the work will keep coming. Their goal is to churn and crush as many associates as possible. If I wanted that, I would work in investment banking and make 3x the money. Kroll also has barely 10 days of PTO (which management discourages you from using). If you want any semblance of peace in your life, avoid at all costs. Kroll does not want you to have career growth. Plain and simple. They would prefer to stunt your growth and just have you complete report after report. They are not incentivized to see you grow and gain skills (or else you would just leave). Kroll is a toxic environment. The staff, management, and employees are always at odds. Everyone is overworked, most people are unhappy. I noticed that 90% of my co-workers looked older or gained weight within 6 months of joining. If you value your mental & physical health you'll avoid at all costs. If you're an H1B worker, Kroll might seem like a good option because they sponsor. This is true. However, they'll convince you that you're beholden to them and work you to the bone. They literally use a strategy of burning out immigrants just because they can. All in all, I'm ecstatic to leave this place and hope many of my co-workers can as well.
