Pros

KPMG provides excellent exposure to the world of finance and consulting. They are supportive of their employees in many ways, including work/life balance. The compensation is good and superior performance is rewarded handsomely.

Cons

There are quite a few downside to working at KPMG. The culture is not particularly collaborative, a lot of time is spent in cubicles staring at data rather than discussing solutions to problems with colleagues. In certain parts of KPMG, it feels like quality of work is rewarded less than volume of work.

Pros

Great Benefits. Overall from a management consulting perspective, the work environment is a lot better than those of publicly listed consulting firms (Accenture, Capgemini, etc). Management is focused on the long term growth, and is willing to invest in growing practices. Overall the culture is very collegiate, unlike other firms. The firm provides plenty of training for employees.

Cons

Coming from a management consulting firm, I found the culture to revolves around risk. It is understandable for Audit, Tax and Internal audit engagments, but complicates regular management consulting engagements (BPS) with unnecessary work being perfomed to comply with the firm's "work paper" policy. Overall I find the firm to be fairly bureaucratic with significant layers of management
