Engagement Financial Advisor / EFA/ Deloitte/ BLR/ HYD/Deloitte
Pros
-Brand name. Which can be used at a later stage in career, if the bubble/hype of deloitte doesn't burn out. - We can say, deloitte as a polished Infosys or TCS. - Working here will give you fake satisfaction that everything is well. You are doing good and being appreciated when in reality you are being driven away from your goals. You are being diverted from doing quality work and top-notch client service.
Cons
-Cant work from home for the 1st nine months -30 leaves in a year, but only 7 can be carried forward. -Associate Analyst, Analyst, Controller, Sr. Controller & managers are doing exact same job and nothing much to learn. - Even if 1 INR is put into HRA, you will have to share PAN card and rent agreement, failure to which you cannot claim HRA(Deloitte's own policy)(irrespective of whether it is below 8333/month or not) - 2- 11pm shift time, which most of the time gets extended by 2 more hours - all hours in the whole day cannot be put into client service hours utilisation during first few months, which decreases you utilisation and later impacts your bonus - Biggest turn down, you cannot speak in your own appraisal, you will be assigned with a coach different to your manager/team lead, and will update him on a weekly basis on your monthly improvements, and they will represent you in your appraisal. You will not be allowed to sit in you yearly appraisal meeting. - mostly mediocre employees and not much to learn from them - 1000 + employees in the unit and to be frank you will not be heard and very minimum or no opportunity to outshine as everyone is doing same job. - you will be small/smallest fish in big pond. - Hike is mostly mediocre single digit, if promoted 11-15% -limited or minimal growth opportunities. - a standard of 3yrs and 9 months you have to stay to be promoted to next level because of huge workforce - During our pre hire discussion, they said many things like - and will make you feel that you are most valuable. - HR will make you feel the most valuable in induction session and all that vanishes once you enter the floor. - Man made feel good factor
