Pros

Generous PTO and convenient parking in Montvale.

Cons

The Strategic Sourcing & Procurement department management is a toxic mix of liars, backstabbers and climbers. It is run by a clueless individual who spends most of his time in California while the majority of his team is in New Jersey. Who calls a 2 hour all hands meeting to tell the team your life story? Very important stuff. Then there is his red headed step child Director who is emotionally challenged and farms out his dirty work to his lackeys. He will lie to you, drain you of your knowledge, have you believe you are moving up the ladder only to send you packing. Be a man, be professional, and look people in the eye when you destroy lives. The department is being outsourced little by little so do not waste your time unless you want to be strung along only to be discarded.

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.
