Pros

The best reason to work for KPMG is the people, the social events, and the benefits. With everyone being at such a young age it's almost like an extension of university. The company also has some pretty decent benefits compared to other large companies.

Cons

There are a couple downsides to working at KPMG. The first is the hours, which can sometimes be brutal during the first 3-4 months of the year (busy season). The other is the compensation, which will definately be lower than industry in your first 3 years. Once in management the salary evens out a bit, but the hours are still tough.

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.
