      Pros

      Working for KPMG looks great on resumes. KPMG company leadership values employees and offers many perks from vacation to discounts on cars & electronics.

      Cons

      Senior Leadership in Strategic Sourcing and Procurement shows lack of respect for employees and is condescending to staff in meetings. KPMG is known for alternate work arrangements which is not granted to staff. Different rules apply to different people. Leadership has showed "everyone is disposible" by firing 20% of staff and hiring Contractors with the same titles the SAME day. Staff keep boxes under their desks in anticipation of being "let go." Work load is unevenly distributed. Ideas and concerns voiced by staff are not entertained nor addressed. No common direction or communication when it comes to advising business teams. Department is heavily micromanaged.

      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.
