Pros

Being such a large organization, there are many opportunities to move into different fields if one wants to. I have had three or four different jobs, including overseas postings. Deloitte welcomes moving people when there is a good reason and the person wants to. Deloitte treats people fairly and with respect. This is rare in large organizations, but Deloitte gets it done. Deloitte is a principles based organization - they live the principles everyday in the way they operate the business such as selecting clients, employees, promotions, taking on new initiatives etc.

Cons

You wont be a multi multi millionaire - even at the top. The hours can be long and sometimes the work is tedious. But, it doesnt last long as the next challenge is around the corner.

Pros

Great career opportunities, very fast paced, great people. In general when you join Deloitte you notice that you will work with 23-35 year old type A personalities who are extremely intelligent and knowledgeable. The drive to succeed is the core of the organization, however, it’s not a cut throat competition - people are very down to earth, and at all career levels people are interested and willing to take the time to develop those at the lower career levels. Generally, a friendly and fun work place with a lot of opportunities, but not for the lazy and disinterested individuals. If you have a goal and willing to work for to make it happen, someone will help you get there - senior management that you work for directly generally has a genuine interest in helping you succeed. Deloitte also offers a lot of opportunities and flexibility in terms of career choices – once you are in, you can change your concentration, travel abroad, teach, work on developing new technologies, and do million other things- if anything, you will never be board at work, and that beats any other accounting job you will ever have – try to stay excited about doing month end close every month, or settling account recs, and writing the same accounting documents – not to knock on other professions – but big 4 and Deloitte generally gives you a lot more in terms of career choice and growth if translated at a rate per year of employment – and Deloitte difference is truly the people that you work with.

Cons

Unreasonably long hours… Best people work the most, and the work life balance thing becomes a far fetched dream - 5 months of 80 hour weeks is a lot to ask of anyone. Sometimes i think of Deloitte as Darwin’s lab - survival of the fittest is the best way to describe it. If you have guts to stick it out, the reward is there, and then Deloitte truly stands for “where the best chose to be,” because no wimp is going to be able to do this day in and day out with a smile.

Pros

Deloitte provides great opportunities to see various companies and various industries through the different projects that are available. There are also a lot of resources available for all sorts needs, from fitness reimbursements and subsidies, to an expansive knowledge sharing network. Deloitte also offers a lot of leadership opportunities and opportunities for business and personal growth. Management also tries their best to let us know what the situation of the firm is through emails and voicemails and sometimes through local gatherings. The young professionals at Deloitte are impressive as they are very hard-working, ambitious and friendly people. There are also many perks associated with working for Deloitte, such as flexible working arrangements, where someone may be able to work part-time if necessary, great firm initiatives, such as the various diversity initiatives and travel perks, such as accumulating hotel points, airline miles and credit card points all on the company's dime.

Cons

Depending on the project and the management team on the project, there are times when you'll be working a lot of hours and doing tasks that aren't very exciting but need to be done, such as documentation. If the manager of the project doesn't plan very well or handle issues before they get too big, the staff are usually the ones who suffer the most, since the work still needs to be done and they are the ones who must deliver. Sometimes you'll also be stuck in a situation where the partner wants one thing, and the client wants another, and you need to satisfy both. Depending on the manager, you may also not get recognized for the hard work you put forth on the project. Most managers are good at keeping morale high but there are always the few who do not.
