Pros

Flexible working times and accommodating senior management. A variety of work in different industries and excellent career opportunities. Can be very challenging at time but efforts are never overlooked. A strong sense of team including team functions and informal beers.

Cons

Unreasonable turnaround times due to poor client management. The risk management processes are very convoluted and drawn out taking far too much time to complete. Support staff seem to work against you than with you by nagging about procedures and rules when it was clear they were hired to alleviate those tasks from client facing staff.

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
