Pros

Maybe a decent name to have on your resume and may look good to some future employers, but that's about it.

Cons

You will get backstabbed, sabotaged, and trampled all over. Coworkers will pull out all the stops to make your life miserable. Even people who are not in direct competition with you will slander you and play all kind of dirty tricks just for sport. There are only two types of people who can survive long term at KPMG: 1. Slimeballs who naturally belong in and flourish in a backstabbing toxic work environment. 2. People who don't mind getting taken advantage of, being stepped all over, and being treated like slaves. If you don't fit into the above two categories, this is NOT the place for you. It's little wonder that most departments in KPMG are like revolving doors. KPMG's bad reputation is very well deserved. It is an absolutely disgusting place to work.

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
