Good place to build your resume - all decisions come from National office - highly corporate culture

Pros
good place to get broad exposure to many different industries and projects; experience looked upon favourably by future employers; excellent training ground
Cons
local office partners are simply employees carrying out orders of national office management; no autonomy in terms of client management; partners make decisions out of fear rather than long-term vision of the business; too many partners trying to save their own skin by hanging others out to dry; very little respect for independent thought - must stick with the "One Deloitte" groupthink; too much focus put on the annual "partnership unit value" that drives partner compensation - partnership unit value is myopic focus of partners - need to look beyond the short term
