Pros

KPMG has a great reputation. The work culture is laid back and professional at the same time. People are fun and great to be around when you're stuck in the office all night. The compensation is the highest compared to the other 3 Big Four Accounting firms at entry level, this is also true about the benefits packages. The company is highly motivated to become a greater force in the industry in the upcoming years.

Cons

They are the smallest of the Big Four firms. The whole company name gets a bad rap because of the scandals from certain offices. Like the other three firms, it's definitely not like mid-size firms and they work you hard.

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
