Pros

Great people to work with, above average pay and a continuous drive in every one around you to improve both personally and professionally

Cons

high-pressure, demanding lengthy time commitments and the ability to manage multiple projects at once can sometimes take a toll on your personal life - but KPMG manages the nature of this work far better than other firms

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.
