Management Consulting in a Developing Country
Pros: Access to an interesting pool of internal resources; opportunity to travel; projects with important clients, including governments.
Cons: Approach to projects for sustainability or international development is dictated by the same one-size-fits-all rationale used in projects of any other sort; advices are given without truly engaging with all the beneficiaries in the field; responsibility for the level of detail of the advices given is limited by what is perceived to be "in the contract" by senior ranks, from the Manager up; assembled teams for a project pretend to be experts in a certain subject, using international references of other KPMGs  to prove their experience, even if none of the members in this particular team has ever worked on it, just to win the project; no life-work balance at all; no good system and objective system of performance of employees; Mobility to other KPMGs in other countries is not easy at all, your desire is not respected nor supported by your bosses most of the time.
