Pros

Initial few days are good, nice office.

Cons

It’s a circus of funny animals who give you enough stress to drive you crazy. Most directors at KPMG believe they know everything and micromanage everything from top to bottom. While they’re good at winning more business and sweet-talking clients, they’re not as good at delivering quality work. Some don’t even know how to talk to people; they need leadership training. They’re not leaders; they’re just managers who’ll never become leaders. As long as I worked there, I always questioned the quality of our deliverables and was forced to produce nonsensical work. I had a lot of experience in delivering but no experience in selling. I’m glad I’m out of that circus and now work at a place where I have enough time and support to produce quality work.

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.
