Pros

- Recognized Name & you will have some intelligent coworkers

Cons

The culture in KPMG advisory is cancerous. Quality managers are severely lacking because good people recognize there are better opportunities elsewhere. I would identify where you actually want to work before you start here and be planning how to get the best exit as soon as possible. Leave as soon as you're Manager, or even before if you can pull it off.

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.
