Pros

- Interesting work, if you have access to it - work with many smart people

Cons

- performance review process is a joke; grading is done in secret before the employee even begins their self-evaluation process - shared services (core services) employees are looked at as bottom of the barrel by the partners and CAs - your voice is never heard - only lip-service but not actual efforts paid to work-life balance, physical and mental health - no opportunities to move around, even in your own team, unless you are personally favoured by senior managers - pay for non-CAs is sub-standard

Pros

You get to work with an awesome, highly resilient group of local peers in the advisory practice. The KPMG brand still holds value, but the internal team dynamics have become incredibly fractured.

Cons

We have outsourced 80%+ of our Risk Advisory work, leaving onshore seniors with massive gaps in their experience. As a manager, I am stuck doing senior-level work because I typically have only one or zero local seniors or associates on my teams. The best leaders have already resigned because this model prevents actual management and mentoring. Also, it might take you 30+ years to become partner in Risk Advisory, if at all.
