Wonderful place to gain experience.
Pros: Great place to work with largely young and highly motivated workforce.  Training is first class.  KPMG provides opportunities to see different industries, within reason.  If you are a very headstrong, driven person you can work on just about any job your would like.  Opportunities to travel and work in other offices are plentiful.
Cons: There is a quite a bit of "good ole boy" mentality at play.  This is definitely a place where the squeaky wheel gets the grease and where if you are staffed on one of the high profile clients, you earn preferential treatment.  Work life balance is given a quite a bit of lip service, but is nonexistent.
