Pros: We would see a large variety of clients, mostly in Oil & Gas and Municipalities. They make the career path very predictable, and there is always room for advancement. Unlike most firms, KPMG paid over-time, which you could bank for when you were studying for the UFE.
Cons: The Edmonton office is a very "old-school" office, in terms of leadership. The office in Edmonton lacks any significant amount of windows. 

KPMG also has a bit of a reputation for being the "party" accounting firm around here. One may feel pressured to drink and party a lot to fit in, especially since they would often throw parties in their boardroom.
