Pros

Work from home is acceptable. Trying to improve work life balance especially during the summer with Early Leave Friday’s. Starting a pilot program for work from home fridays.

Cons

Everything else if you’re a lateral hire and a woman. There is clear preference given to white males for work and just normal interaction. You can keep reaching out for work but you won’t be placed on interesting engagements and your contribution generally won’t be recognized. There is a lot of favoritism in the Boston office. Better health plans and PTO days at some other firms. Firm is losing work as well.

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.
