Pros

KPMG has competitive benefits, salary rates, and work/life balance. Additionally, I felt like I was treated fairly by managers during the year end review process and always felt as if I was putting out high-quality, sufficiently reviewed work. They place an emphasis on societal contribution and offer great training opportunities. In the IT Audit (Risk Assurance) field, they encourage and will pay for personnel to get relevant certifications. Finally, there is a relatively transparent path through the organization, especially from the Associate to Director level.

Cons

Workload can be demanding at times, also as you progress through your career (specifically as experienced associate or senior associate) you will end up managing new college hires which can present problems in some scenarios.

Pros

Respectful, supportive and collaborative culture Great people with a nice balance of high IQ and EQ Key investments in people development - lots of opportunities to learn every day. Significant efforts being placed in leading in Digital, Data and AI, Cyber, M&A support and Sustainability. Fantastic training and meeting center experience at KPMG Lakehouse

Cons

* Alliance staff, support staff, marketing staff have limited upward mobility. Only those who work directly with key firm leaders seem to get promoted * Random, periodic layoffs which may continue if the economy remains soft - Lately, it seems if you aren't client facing -or are client facing and not making your quotas, your shelf life may be limited at KPMG.
