Culture of bullying Favoritism, promotion based on social relationships not competence at job Micromanagement is common Annual goals impossible to meet so there is a record of why you are bad "Anonymous" annual surveys are not anonymous, I was actually confronted for answering "no" when asked if I thought it was a "great place to work".

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.
