      College Students Beware. Do not waste your time - Advisory Associate KPMG Employee Review

      Pros

      Fast interview process and good pay (in theory, more below)

      Cons

      KPMG has deferred start dates for 2023 grads numerous times and provided 0 transparency throughout the process. I was offered and signed in Fall 2022 with a "Summer/Fall 2023" start date. After signing a lease and moving in to an apartment across the country I was informed in May 2023 that the date had been pushed back to 2024. I hung onto hope and got a new job to fill the gap and pay rent. It is now 2024 and the advisory hires that were supposed to start in January have now been pushed back once again to SEPTEMBER 2024, with less than three weeks' notice.

      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.
