Anyone heard of KPMG Strategic Intelligence Innovation or KPMG Ignition? Had a recruiter reach out today and I want to understand concretely what this team actually does.

You will probably get better answers in the KPMG bowl, but from my limited understanding, ignition is (at least partially) responsible for developing client relations & getting more work in the pipeline / helping that work continue down the pipeline to eventually become an engagement

helpful

Be careful with KPMG ignition. My 2 friends work with them and in their group they’re strictly internal teams. No travel, no clients , and basically just coding monkeys (that also have to work with offshore teams). Also less pay because their group is technically under tax.

D1, please explain more. Currently interviewing.
