      Toxic Environment

      Consulting manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Some people are great -Generous PTO -Plenty of opportunities -Robust internal administrative tools -Looks great on a resume -Good healthcare plans and corporate perks

      Cons

      -Terrible work/life balance. If you use PTO it negatively effects your utilization. Be prepared to work 60-70 hours a week on average. -Extremely political. The partners want you to bow down to them in order to advance. -The partners are arrogant and elite. A small handful of them are actually nice. -Endless junk emails pushed down from all areas of the company. Constant bombardment of extra requirements that add to your workload. -All the firm cares about is firm contribution. You can be a rock star with the client, make the firm tons of money but all they care about is the number of firm activities you participate in. -The performance evaluation process is tedious and very subjective. Your boss may give you a high rating, but you'll be downgraded by a consensus panel for numerous reasons. 75% of Deloitte Consulting practitioners are downgraded mainly because the partners don't want to give out good pay increases and bonuses. -401k plan is a joke -The Independence process is slow and painful. We miss out on many opportunities to team with great companies because of it, and lose work as a result. -Useless required training (much of the training the firm requires you to complete doesn't even count towards the annual learning requirement) -Very top heavy, extremely bureaucratic -Layers and layers of red tape and management -Broken staffing process -The firm has lost a ton of lucrative contracts to competitors like KPMG, Booz Allen and Accenture

      Working at Deloitte isn't a job it's a punishment

      Senior consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Reputation, brand, regular training, staff is talented, nice offices, project can be decent but that is highly variable depending on the engagement. I chose Deloitte because they were supposedly experts in the field and industry i'm in. I have an MBA from a top 5 school and another Masters and trust me, I was excited to join a consulting firm with a good rep. It is not what it is cracked up to be. I went into this with no expectations but after you've seen what I have, there is no wonder that the attrition rate at this firm along with many others is something over 25% every year. People get smart and move into other industries and functions.

      Cons

      Worst management teams in industry. Poor training, poor communications, no respect, no support, no accolades for good work. The hours are really long and the travel is really tough. I had clients coast to coast. If you think this is exciting like I did before, let me tell you it gets old really quick. In terms of career growth, you basically have to kiss a bunch of butt and take a lot of crap from horrible managers to move up. I saw some really talented, bright, and hard working managers get kicked out or go for years without promotion because they did not go through the political BS.

      Fair Pay, Boring Projects, Disrespectful Superiors

      Business analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Name Recognition - Deloitte Consulting is genuinely a recognizable name among business school and other employers. Relative to working with a small company, I think that bigger companies offer employees more choice as to where they will go after they leave.

      Cons

      Culture is very draconian and hierarchical. There were many times when rank was invoked out of nowhere to prove a point, rather that using data to prove a point. Most projects have literally nothing to do with what most would consider management consulting. It is high-price temping at best. There is no support for new people. Do not count on superiors to lead you through. Very sink-or-swim environment. My best advice is to keep your head down, don't drink too much at their constant, and constantly awkward, office parties, and grit your teeth for two years.
