Pros

- Great culture - Consulting firm that treats you like a human - Engaging and variable work - Lots of support from management and peers - Great benefits (insurance, vacation, 401k, etc) - Not as stringent hierarchy (for a large corporation) - Strong mentoring program - Room for advancement for motivated individuals - Good salary - Ability to work remotely

Cons

- Longer hours depending on project (more than 40 hours) - Somewhat conservative approach to tech/solution adoption (This is not a huge problem, but I believe rather a symptom of any large organization.) - In the process of building tech resources. (Good and bad. Lots of opportunity, but less direct guidance.)

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.
