Pros

Career opportunity growth and people are generally down to earth and personable. The firm is doing its best to provide a comfortable environment for people to work in, though the nature of the job is quite boring and the hours are known to be very long. Usually people mixed up the two - the nature of the job and KPMG as a firm that is. But really if you choose to be in the industry there's not really a better place to work for.

Cons

The nature of the job is rather boring and be prepare for very very long working hours during the year-end audit.

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
