Good enough
Pros: KPMG as a big firm gives you the chance to try different areas. They are quite flexible when it comes to move towards another area after even 6 months. (better that than they lose you ;) )

If you are the kind of person looking for a "safe job" and get a reasonable salary comparing with Portugal's mean, you will be fine at KPMG. (not so good , because of extra hours tho).

Health insurance and Vodafone perks.
Cons: If you get out of a top university in Portugal and you look for something exciting, just go abroad and start in any consulting company instead. When it comes to salary Portugal's tax system is not attractive and wages are low. Apart from that in KPMG Portugal, the consulting mindset is completely distorted. You will not step up on your career based on your effort. There are minimum years required in each level. So even though you are amazing you will end up have to wait 3 to 4 years to step up.

Work-life balance isn't the worst, but still sucks. And keep in mind OVER WORK IS NOT PAID.
