Pros

- They pay for your CA training courses and provide workshops to help you through the education part of your CA training - You get to see a lot of different businesses - You get to work with some really good people

Cons

- Working at KPMG for your CA, you start off in audit. It's not the firm's fault, but working as an auditor isn't always seen as a value-added service when you're out at the client and adding to their already high workload

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.
