Pros

Its a big four company - barely.

Cons

- The interviewers lied during the interview and my job not match the job description in any way (Honestly feels like they put a job description for the wrong job). - Partners consistently acted unethically. - Their office politics are down right gross. - My biggest mistake of life was I joined KPMG Ireland - my mental health became a wreck. - Company doesn't care if their employee is growing or not. - They had virtually no real projects in the 9 months I worked there. This is a garbage dump of a company - don't make a mistake that you will regret. PwC, EY, Deloitte are all much better firms with better people and better processes. This company (or basically a glorified primary school project) just has money to burn and their clients are none the wiser go to a better firm.

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.).
