Pros

The persoal development opportunities in KPMG are great. Its the perfect place to start off your career. The development programm is well organized and you can focus on your personal development. Also the young enviroment is great and you get to know people from all over Europe and the world. Also you work on the "big case". You consult large companies, which gives the job an extra attractiveness.

Cons

If you are not fitting in a 100% you wont make partner. You have to know this early enoght to decide where to go from there. But the chances to change are great.

Pros

You get to work with an awesome, highly resilient group of local peers in the advisory practice. The KPMG brand still holds value, but the internal team dynamics have become incredibly fractured.

Cons

We have outsourced 80%+ of our Risk Advisory work, leaving onshore seniors with massive gaps in their experience. As a manager, I am stuck doing senior-level work because I typically have only one or zero local seniors or associates on my teams. The best leaders have already resigned because this model prevents actual management and mentoring. Also, it might take you 30+ years to become partner in Risk Advisory, if at all.
