Pros

The flexibility in work life balance. Although there is not as much freedom with respect to our Audit and Tax branches, freedom and independence are excellent in the Advisory practice. KPMG, compared to other BIG FOUR accounting firms, offers 5 weeks of vacation - much more than you'd get at D&T, E&Y and PWC for non-management/staff.

Cons

Organization when it comes to scheduling is sometimes lacking and percentage of travel can be very high.

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
