KPMG - Great company; wish I enjoyed the work
Pros: The benefits package at KPMG was very good.  On the audit side, it is possible to have a fairly flexible schedule; as long as the job was getting done, there was no micro-managing;a bonus to those of us working with kids.  CPE was another beneift, one I didn't recognize until leaving and struggling to get 40 hours when at KPMG I'd get 100+ hours easy.  Finally, getting the opportunity to visit numerous client in varying industries is a nice perk to learning more about the accounting world and how different firms do things
Cons: The downside was a result of my personality.  I'm a heads down, get the work done person; not a reality for an audit manager who is expected to bring in business, attend trustee meetings, etc.
