Deloitte reviews

Too many too list. You have partners who can't sell, provide 0 value add except correct grammar mistakes in powerpoints and nothing else. 0 technical knowledge despite being in the firm for a long time. Now sure how that is possible. They expect 100% loyalty from their staff and the moment you choose to switch sectors, they will go all out to try and destroy your career. Whole Southeast asian practice is run like a family business with power controlled by 2-3 partners.

For every positive, there is a catch and a condition - You are able to do trainings and go to things that are directly related to the project you are on or what service line you are aligned to, you're not allowed. It's also not uncommon to be waitlisted for a trip to DU - As with many places, for as many good people you meet, there are some really bad ones. What makes it bad is that there is no accountability and it's often people who have the more prestigious schools on their resume that get treated like kings/queens. People who are bad performers are not always identified if they are able to brown nose with enough people at the top. Similarly, top performers are rarely identified, much less recognized. Among the experience hire group (people who weren't recruited directly off a local campus), the turnover is really high for a lot of those reason - Another reason that people leave is they tend to grossly underpay people. For instance, someone a level below you could be making $10k more without a masters simple because they were a campus hire. Over time, they claim that it will "balance out" but as long as you're within the band for your level, that's all they care about. So you could be forever banished to well below the median if you don't come in reasonably. For example, the range for a Senior Consultant may be $80k - $120k. As long as you're making $80, they do not care at all. - Work life balance comes at a price. They expect you to be super involved in impactful firm activities, but it is beyond the regular 40 hours or more you work on a project. If you don't do it, you cannot expect to succeed or do well. However, they don't give you much credit for it because they don't make money off of you while you're doing it.
