Pros

The best reasons to work at KPMG is that you get work with a lot of different companies and learn their business model. You also get to work small teams with people around your age and it could be fun. You will learn a lot about auditing and GAAP and understand financial statements.

Cons

There are a lot of hours that you have to put in during an engagement. Depending on who you work with, some seniors and managers may make you work ridiculously late because they did not budget the engagement very well.

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.
