Deloitte India can be one of the worst firms in your career
Pros: Difficult to fathom, I would say paying the salary on time is the only positive point in this organization. And the expenses are reimbursed promptly only if booked on project codes.
Cons: Let me list them out
1. Deloitte India hides behind the facade of Deloitte USI. Deloitte India partners themselves say dont say Deloitte India infront of client during a consulting scoping study. It creates bad reputation. The work culture is horrible. Every directors fight for resources and at times you will be stretched beyond your limits while working for 2 teams at a time. Best part is, the opposing directors wont talk to each other and expect you to deliver 200% in each team simultaneously.
2. No organized skill development opportunities. You will be thrown in to a certain project with no idea on how to deal with the situation, and be prepared to hear the partner and director scream at you everytime you fail to perform.
3. Horrible work life balance. Calls can happen at 12 AM at night and deliverables expected early next morning. The directors and partners will go to sleep, and the consultants and managers generally slogs it out on a regular basis
4. There no choice of projects. You can thrown into and pulled from and thrown in a different project as deemed necessary by your partner/director.
5. Use of cuss words, unproffessional language, extreme rude behaviour are common and promoted top down as a culture
6. Random travel plans with no prior scheduling depending on the degree of firefighting in a project.
7. OPEs on bd codes are not reimbursed. Expect delays and multiple follow ups
8. I know people in senior management who were responsible for physical abuses to their fellow junior team mates
9. They think of resources even consultants, managers as another body which can be exploited to serve their goals. They dont see resources as value drivers. Partners are off the opinion that if one does not work, there are others who are ready to replace them easily. People are fungible in their opinion,

So guys, think very carefully before joining this firm. Even if you do, only use it as a staging ground for moving ahead in your career once you get a better opportunity.
