Pros

A good place to start your career. It offers a chance to see many different companies, in different industries. It's also good to have the brand name on your resume. You'll learn a lot about how to work with people through your job here. The vacation days are great: 25 days a year - that's hard to beat anywhere!

Cons

Sometime, office politic can be bothersome. The review process can be subjective as well. Also be aware that consulting schedule is unpredictable: long hours and high pressure on some days, normal and relax atmosphere on other days. The biggest downsides is that in certain group, staffs are not challenged enough.

Pros

You get to work with an awesome, highly resilient group of local peers in the advisory practice. The KPMG brand still holds value, but the internal team dynamics have become incredibly fractured.

Cons

We have outsourced 80%+ of our Risk Advisory work, leaving onshore seniors with massive gaps in their experience. As a manager, I am stuck doing senior-level work because I typically have only one or zero local seniors or associates on my teams. The best leaders have already resigned because this model prevents actual management and mentoring. Also, it might take you 30+ years to become partner in Risk Advisory, if at all.
