Pros

Working with intelligent, hardworking, professional team members, but you have to enjoy them quick before they leave due to the inherent departmental problems.

Cons

Leadership. No gender diversity at higher titles or color diversity. No crumbs for talent retention. No promotion from within. Dead career paths. Low morale. It feels like a Dementor is sucking all the cheerfulness out of the department.

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.
