Pros

Initial few days are good, nice office.

Cons

It’s a circus of funny animals who give you enough stress to drive you crazy. Most directors at KPMG believe they know everything and micromanage everything from top to bottom. While they’re good at winning more business and sweet-talking clients, they’re not as good at delivering quality work. Some don’t even know how to talk to people; they need leadership training. They’re not leaders; they’re just managers who’ll never become leaders. As long as I worked there, I always questioned the quality of our deliverables and was forced to produce nonsensical work. I had a lot of experience in delivering but no experience in selling. I’m glad I’m out of that circus and now work at a place where I have enough time and support to produce quality work.

Pros

It might sound cliche but the Pro for me is the people that I work with. I'm lucky enough to be staffed in a team with great leadership. Managers are actually willing to coach junior members and be a real mentor. I very much appreciate their efforts.

Cons

Long hours and office politics. This is pretty basic and obvious for any public accounting firms. Every time a quarter end, year end, or a special filing is going out, you can expect 10-14 hour days. It might be fine in your early career but it gets really tiring after a few years.
