Good company, Bad job
Pros: The best reasons to work at KPMG have to be the vacation time and the opportunity to advance both within the company and elsewhere. The Company tries to do little things to make the employees feel valued (gifts, extra days off, parties, etc), but it often doesn't make a significant impact. Management seems to care and most of the people are genuinely good people with the best intentions.
Cons: The work itself is awful. The hours during the spring are ridiculous and there is an expectation that working all the time is expected and is something to admire. Work should support one's life, work should not be one's life. The vacation time is nice (25 days), but it is necessary to endure the constant irritation that is the average day at work.
