Pros

In 2010, KPMG LLP collectively employees more than 24,000 people, among whom, nearly 3000 people are directly working at our New York branch. Employees believe in the company’s ability to satisfy all clients despite the complexity of the distinguishing tax system and accounting standard of the U.S

Cons

The expansion of our company means increasing workload which could isolate employees in their offices. In fact, the rapid growth of KPMG LLP over the past five years has significantly reduced the sense of community and the commitment employees used to have to their jobs. The pressure of enormous and intense work put on our accountants, auditors, and consultants has left them almost no time to strengthen relationships with their colleagues.

Pros

- young workforce - opportunities to study - advisory work can be challenging and rewarding - great experience

Cons

- poor work life balance - hours are long - progression depends on who you know / having a good advocate at more senior levels - HR are hopeless - at the end of the day, you are a money making resource, not a human being - limited support, very often thrown in the deep end

Pros

great career development opporunities; develop good technical skills; working with big international clients; lots of training options available; many good leaders/ middle-management

Cons

the opportunities are endless, however it would be extremely helpful and motivating if there was more structure over progression/development (e.g. moving offices, practices, etc)
