Could be better
Pros: Since KPMG is one of the Big 4s, the obvious pros are reputation and experience on your resume. KPMG does emphasize training and offer a lot of good methodologies and tools for reference and guide.
Cons: Be ready for a very political environment. You have to suck up to move up. You have to know the right people and sing the same song. Management do not communicate big news in a clear and timely manner. Workpapers are very manual, administrative, and time-consuming (plus they are not-chargeable). If you are looking for work/life balance, then do not work here. Certain managers are just plain ***holes.
