Pros

Policies - Leave Policies are quite good 22 Annual Leaves 12 (10+2 Flexi) Public Holidays etc. 5 Medical Leave- can be extended based on condition etc. Overall you do have options to get WLB (given your project/manager let you make use of any)

Cons

1. 100s of unnecessary training it looks like the mail box is spammed with traning. 2. My personal experience is that there is a culture of favourtism rather than your actual performance. no matter how skilled your are it's like if you don't have visibility enough in the organization by doing org. work, going on dinners parties etc. like interacting with people higher ups to make yourself visible across the practice. you won't get promotions and benifits same as some chattu/skilled with words person.(that's also an art I get it and may be that's what needed to grow in corporate at one point in time but please do recognised and appreciate people with real skills) 3. like any other consultancy/service based company. billing mil rahi hai toh we don't care employee needs just give him some lollipop and chill. (from point 2-3 it all depends on under whom you 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.
