KPMG is a good place to work, but you will need to fend for yourself.
Pros: KPMG provides excellent exposure to the world of finance and consulting. They are supportive of their employees in many ways, including work/life balance. The compensation is good and superior performance is rewarded handsomely.
Cons: There are quite a few downside to working at KPMG. The culture is not particularly collaborative, a lot of time is spent in cubicles staring at data rather than discussing solutions to problems with colleagues. In certain parts of KPMG, it feels like quality of work is rewarded less than volume of work.
