      Pros

      Resume Builder. Lots of paid time off (25 days); unfortunately this includes sick days and will usually be the only time you will get off.

      Cons

      No life. No time to use time off. If your married, you will probably get divorced if you stay for long. It's all about face time. Incompetent tax managers. Bill, Bill, Bill. There is not such thing as a busy "season." Most of the staff are incompetent football types that plug numbers and follow last year only. 95% of the staff/manager not know what is going on with there job. Jobs are there life. limited social events as everyone is too busy chatting in the office during there down time.

      Pros

      Great general benefits however not as good as it was when I first started at the firm 11 years ago. Firm used to provide better employee incentives but no longer provides. Employee experience all depends on who you report to and work with. Some have great experiences, while others are completely over-worked.

      Cons

      Let go during RIF. When I started with the firm back in 2015, RIF's didn't occur much but now has become the normal once a year at minimum at KPMG. You must be on top of you game now (high performance culture) otherwise can be let go at any moments notice. Unfortunately if you do amazing on your engagement work, doesn’t mean anything to leadership and can still be let go, especially at manager level and requires you to put many additional hours per week doing extra curricular (Business Proposals, Certifications, etc.).
