Deloitte reviews

1. The culture at Deloitte is utterly toxic. There is no division for work-life balance and employees frequently behave like high schoolers to each other. In my two years at Deloitte across several major accounts there was constant drama within my vicinity that I had to deal with / avoid on a daily basis. Working through office politics was often harder than the job itself. 2. Federal contracting is broken. This isn’t necessarily D’s fault but most projects objectively fail or otherwise do not contribute any meaningful value to federal clients. It often ends up feeling like stealing with extra steps. 3. The sausage making is obscene. I observed multiple fresh-out-of-state-college kids be billed as highly specialized subject matter experts to their client which was at least very wrong and at most...much worse. Deliverables often get slapped together last minute and clients routinely called us out for making things up as we went.

Deloitte Valuation IJV Mumbai - Management is on short term contract and thus doesn't care about department culture. Management blindly favors couple of old employees and has awarded them back to back promotions and also has given them free rein to harrass and insult people. These Managers/ Senior Managers are very vocal in using staffing and appraisals as tools to intimidate people and humiliate their unfavored people very openly. This has also led to panic attacks and nervous breakdowns in many juniors. When some of the employees escalated issue to management, rather than taking any action against them, they were actually rewarded through promotions and good ratings every year. The people who filed complaints always end-up resigning because after filing complaints their life become even more miserable. Management is even allowing engaged /married couples to work in the same department (in violation of global policy), where they can affect each others and their juniors' appraisals/promotions very visibly. In the historical meetings, the married/engaged couples had been advocating each others performances very vocally, which affected their ratings/ promotions and secondments very positively. Thus, its a really bad place for people who want to grow through performance alone. Humiliating juniors is a way of life here, which is rewarded by management.
