Pros

The best reasons to work for KPMG are: - The network of colleagues: many ambitious around you so great for network building - The clients: mostly large clients so great for getting experience - The perfect entry in working life: perfectly follows graduation, many young people and understanding for 'adaptation' problems for newcomers - The top management clearly realizes bad points and wants to work on that - Salary is low upon entering, but increases justly as responsabilities increase - Flexible spirit of managers towards holidays, working hours, expense notes etc - Retention: unhappy people leave fast, so managers/partners that stay are really driven and commited for the organization

Cons

- Not the best place for people that want stable working hours - Not the same prestige as Strategy Consulting firms

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
