Pros

The St. Louis Team was and awesome set of professionals all new to the firm ( 3 years or less). The office facilities were state of the art

Cons

The overall direction and leadership came from legacy leadership in Montvale NJ that was toxic and hostile. When you are told 60 days into the firm that people threaten to get to fired all the time, It not personal, just get used to it. Something is seriously wrong.

Pros

Great general benefits however not as good as it was when I first started at the firm 11 years ago. Firm used to provide better employee incentives but no longer provides. Employee experience all depends on who you report to and work with. Some have great experiences, while others are completely over-worked.

Cons

Let go during RIF. When I started with the firm back in 2015, RIF's didn't occur much but now has become the normal once a year at minimum at KPMG. You must be on top of you game now (high performance culture) otherwise can be let go at any moments notice. Unfortunately if you do amazing on your engagement work, doesn’t mean anything to leadership and can still be let go, especially at manager level and requires you to put many additional hours per week doing extra curricular (Business Proposals, Certifications, etc.).
