Pros

There are any number of challenging jobs and highly motivated, very competent people here. If you are working in an area where both of these are the case, you can learn a lot, in a relatively short time. Because of the size of the firm, you tend to be exposed to a wide range of issues facing large companies.

Cons

Each practice area and office is unique in some way. It's important to choose some combination of area/client mix/management where you're professionally challenged, but not overwhelmed or bored.

Pros

The persoal development opportunities in KPMG are great. Its the perfect place to start off your career. The development programm is well organized and you can focus on your personal development. Also the young enviroment is great and you get to know people from all over Europe and the world. Also you work on the "big case". You consult large companies, which gives the job an extra attractiveness.

Cons

If you are not fitting in a 100% you wont make partner. You have to know this early enoght to decide where to go from there. But the chances to change are great.

Pros

Multi-cultural work force, communication is easy between colleagues as well as with leaders. Working in a leading accounting firm like KPMG provides one quick access to large pool of resources and up to date info if one really want to develope himself in fields like tax, accounting and accounting-related advisory. Besides, KPMG has an especially strong presence in Germany, compared to other countries, and after the merger with KPMG UK, the future of the company seems to be quite bright.

Cons

The company is big, so inevitably sometimes a bit chaotic in terms of employee training, performance review etc. Get use to that and you will be just fine. Small interest groups can be found in each department. And last but not least, the work there is not very exciting, most time just routine work, even in the advisory department.
