Good place to work, depending on the team you are assigned to
Pros: KPMG is a good place to learn and you get to take advantage of frequent training and mentoring from seniors. The work-life balance is good at normal times (apart from the busy seasons).
Cons: The support services in KPMG (HR, Admin, IT) are terrible and fail you at times when you most need them. Busy seasons are crazy because of all the non-essential work that client-facing staff are forced to do. The promotion and rewards systems also seem to be weighting more towards time spent than any measure of ability, in recent times.
