      Great training ground for Fresh graduates

      Senior advisory associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      KPMG is a great training ground for fresh graduates who either want to build a career in the field of accounting or has not determined what to do as a career. One will gain a lot of work experiences with different industries, companies, clients, and people. KPMG also offer good internal training programs. Also, KPMG managment is good in recognising and rewarding good work.

      Cons

      Probably similar to other Big 4 firms, working at KPMG means long working hours and lots of travelng (especially in the advisory practice). During busy times, one needs to work 12-15 hours a day (not including the time spent in training, administration, and traveling). Therefore, there isn't much personal time. However, when the economy is down, one may stay in the office whole day doing nothing.

      The Best Firm of the Big 4 Accounting Firms

      Tax associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The base salary is the most competitive of all Big 4 firms. They also give you the most vacation days of any Big 4 firm. I believe most give around 16 days vacation, but KPMG gives around 25. Great Location on Park Avenue in New York City. Great culture, everyone is extremely friendly, not snobby and stuck up like other Big 4 firms I worked for. KPMG truly cares about their employees. If you ever have to choose between big 4 firms, I would definitely choose KPMG.

      Cons

      Nothing except that you obviously work long hours.

      Good place to start a career; minor gripes

      Tax associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      KPMG offers good benefits such as five weeks of personal time off (n.b. includes sick time). The medical, dental, and vision plans they offer are pretty good. They just reduced the minimum employer matching contribution for 401(k)s to 25% from 75%. The training and educational programs that KPMG offer are top notch and one will have smart and motivated coworkers.

      Cons

      Salaries for entry-level positions are allegedly (that's why one goes to glassdoor.com) a bit lower than they are at the other Big 4 Accounting firms. KPMG promotes their "Work/Life Balance" policy relentlessly, but its heavily dependent on which practice and particularly, which office one works at. Don't give out your cell phone number unless you plan on working during weekends and vacation anyways.
