Ehh
Pros: Employ smart people
Good opportunities to travel
Work Life Balance was actually pretty good
Was able to work on some interesting projects
Cons: National leadership doesn't seem to know where they are going
Promotion criteria differs widely between offices
Ridiculous amount of administrative time spent filling out spreadsheets, forecasting time and sitting on calls that go nowhere.
Managers and Partners are terrible at working across service lines and guard their list of contacts in the industry to the detriment of the company
KPMG was very reactive to the economic downturn rather than proactive
Seattle office has lost over half of the Advisory staff in the last 15 months
