Not a company to work for, unless you want to commit career suicide.
Pros: There is not one good reason to work for KPMG, unless you want to commit career suicide. You can find better.
Cons: 1. Upper management - Too many levels, unlikely to voice any concerns on how projects are being run.
2. Senior management does not know what senior managers are doing in regards to running the business like a cheap MultiLevel Marketing scheme.
3. For an Audit firm they are not honest as they practice double booking clients, or at least some senior managers.
4. No work life balance - In fact was hired on for 40 hour weeks and then told that we needed to do 50 hour weeks to catch up on work (even though the client was charged for the extra time). This in normal project would be called going over budget or deadlines, this would not be a best practice exercise for companies who want to grow.
5. Not personable - very cold and corporate
6. Sarbanes Oxley is the only thing keeping this company floating.
