      Pros

      KPMG pays pretty well and it is easy for someone to take on a lot of responsibility early in their career.

      Cons

      The hours at KPMG, like many public accounting firms, can be unbearable for some. Be prepared to work 60+ hours per week, on average. Also, during the time I was there, promises of bonuses were made to employees. Once the company incurred the large tax shelter penalty, these bonuses were not given. Originally it was stated, in writing that 80% of employees would receive bonuses. In reality, the actual percentage was much, much lower.

      Pros

      Great general benefits however not as good as it was when I first started at the firm 11 years ago. Firm used to provide better employee incentives but no longer provides. Employee experience all depends on who you report to and work with. Some have great experiences, while others are completely over-worked.

      Cons

      Let go during RIF. When I started with the firm back in 2015, RIF's didn't occur much but now has become the normal once a year at minimum at KPMG. You must be on top of you game now (high performance culture) otherwise can be let go at any moments notice. Unfortunately if you do amazing on your engagement work, doesn’t mean anything to leadership and can still be let go, especially at manager level and requires you to put many additional hours per week doing extra curricular (Business Proposals, Certifications, etc.).
