Company: KPMG
Date: 2013-03-05
Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Very conservative, risk-adverse, "button-up" organization
Pros: KPMG is one of the "big four" so there are natural advantages of being part of this large matrixed organization with cross-functional, cross-geography and in-depth focus across industries. The leadership generally truly seems to care about the employees and the commitment to diversity and the community are there (at least on paper).
Cons: KPMG is a good place for Tax and Audit professionals.  While Advisory is the largest source of growth, it's lagging in terms of the organizational commitment - this might be a good place for Advisory in 3-5 years as the practices mature.
