Pros

I had a great experience with KPMG. I was a summer intern there and learn a lot about the financial services industry.

Cons

The only con I can think of is that it is quite difficult within KPMG to move from one division to another.

Pros

Obviously the largest benefit of working at KPMG is the fact that it is a Big 4 Audit firm. Having KPMG on your resume is attractive and can be beneficial to your career growth. Furthermore, I was very satisfied with the salary and benefits in my position.

Cons

In my division, there was very little recognition and management often spoke down to associates. I felt that my input was not appreciated. Furthermore, I was not the least bit challenged by my work. I spent most of my time editting existing documents and creating excel sheets. Management told me exactly how they wanted work to be completed and there was no room for flexibility. I felt there was no room for innovation and I never had the opportunity to bring my own contributions. Staffing on projects was rarely done by interests or expertise. As an associate, I was placed where I was needed and not where I was getting the development I needed. Furthermore, the company continued to hire industrial/organizational psychologists for technology implementation projects. Many of my peers and myself were bored by our projects because it did not relate to our backgrounds.
