Pros

Big four experience. If you are lucky you get to work with many different companies. Great experience in different industries.

Cons

Very clickish culture. Only recruite african americans to increase their minority share (saw this in an email) Don't believe a word they say. Watch your back as they will lie to your face and behind your back. Expect to work late hours.

Pros

Somewhat collaborative environment Wellhub Nothing else comes to mind

Cons

Laid off with no rhyme or reason- not performance based and I was actively staffed on projects. Coincidentally, it happened 2 weeks before my promised maternity leave. They were strategic enough to bring me on and let me go before I could receive a raise, bonus or 401K match. I’ll also add that for being a big 4, KPMG is extremely unorganized internally. You have to bookmark a million links for common sites and go tapping on shoulders for documentation to reference for clients
