Experience level: Junior

Great experience, great projects, pay could be improved.
Pros: The projects, people, time off, and benefits - to me- are strong. I enjoy the work I do, and I get to learn while I am doing the work. Management consulting was always where I wanted to be, and KPMG offered me an opportunity to learn immediately. The PTO time is awesome, too. I normally have to take a few days off at the end of the year just to ensure I don't lose it- mainly because I don't plan on taking that much over year.
Cons: The pay could increase -  I know I am making less than some of my friends at other firms. Moreover, there could be more direct training. Instead, the training comes on each project. I would appreciate a bit more direct training to be more comfortable when I am with the client. There is some, but it is mainly BS at the lower level. The really strong engagement stuff doesn't start until manager level.
