Pros

KPMG has a great reputation. The work culture is laid back and professional at the same time. People are fun and great to be around when you're stuck in the office all night. The compensation is the highest compared to the other 3 Big Four Accounting firms at entry level, this is also true about the benefits packages. The company is highly motivated to become a greater force in the industry in the upcoming years.

Cons

They are the smallest of the Big Four firms. The whole company name gets a bad rap because of the scandals from certain offices. Like the other three firms, it's definitely not like mid-size firms and they work you hard.

Pros

It is a big 4. Exit options are excellent every advancement. If accounting is your chosen profession, then it is a great place to launch your career and get ahead. CPA preparation courses are paid by the firm. There are possibilities overseas - again, big 4 name carreis a long way.

Cons

Relatively low compensation considering that one has a CPA.

Pros

For anyone who just graduated from school with a business major KPMG is definitely one of the best places to launch a career as it offers various well designed training programs throughout each level of the jobs and the opportunity to gain plenty of experience in a short period of time. I haven't worked in any of other Big 4 firms myself but from what I have heard and the information I got KPMG's culture and working environment is relatively more lay back and easy going. Overall the management is pretty supportive in terms of the work/life balance and serious about maintaining a competent working environment.

Cons

The biggest downside of working at KPMG is the long working hours. Even if the firm management is supportive for creating a work/life balance environment sometimes you just can't find the time to have a "real life" due to the intense working load. So never try to compare the hourly rate you get from working here to others!
