Pros

*Advertised* decent salary for advisory new hires in offer letters

Cons

Absolutely no regard for new hire livelihoods — after offer letter signed Fall 2022, 20 DAYS before advisory start dates in January 2024 (already 1 push back), people were informed that start dates were pushed AGAIN to July/September 2024. This is the 2-3 pushback for most. There was absolutely NO communication that this would happen — got a sudden call on Jan 5 after orientation was scheduled, flights booked for training, I-9 processed, etc. Everyone I know affected already had financial commitments made (naturally given that we are 3 weeks out..) such as apartment leases signed, roommates found, old jobs quit, flight tickets bought…just for KPMG to leave its new hires out to dry. This is completely disgusting and a real reflection of what leadership thinks of its people. Avoid this company for your own sake!

Pros

One of the Big 4 accounting firms, i.e., name recognition

Cons

Since joining KPMG - Advisory in 2017, there have been no less than two reorganizations and two RIFs (reductions in force, or layoffs). The voluntary turnover here is also extremely high, so there is no sense of team because it's a revolving door. Most importantly, senior management has no idea what they're doing; constantly undertaking reorgs and RIFs to address profitability but nothing seems to work. The funny thing is that it's the Partners and Principals of the practice that really drive revenue and profits (they are the rainmakers) , and when they fall short (a constant problem), the "solution" is layoff staff. Staff is not the problem, the problem is at the top. Also, bad ethics violations and scandals in the news recently; who would want to associate themselves with that?
