Great experience for new employees entering the workforce.
Pros: Great experience and a great learning environment.  You will work with many intelligent people at KPMG.  This is a great company to work for to gain initial job experience.  Salary was very good compared to most other industries.  I would consider this a consultant type position at comparing salaries.
Cons: Depending on your group, there could be quite a bit of travel.  Also, promotion and advancement is dependent on how well certain management speaks up on your behalf.  You will also work an average of 50-60 hours per week. Not conducive to a "normal" home and family life. I saw that peers with families had a very difficult time with life/work balance.
