Pros

Opportunity to work with a wide variety of clients in a wide variety of different functions and industries. Opportunity to meet middle and senior leadership in various companies. There is plenty of opportunity to develop new skills and new experiences. There is also plenty of opportunity to establish connections in companies and industries that the individual is interested in pursuing.

Cons

Long hours are often required, work over weekends is often required, and vacations can sometimes be difficult to schedule around engagements. Work / Life balance is not as good as it could be, and certainly it is not as good as one would find within industry.

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.
