Experience level: Junior

Great people, great opportunities
Pros: Significant differentiation in promotion timescales for top performers, competitive pay (for Big Four), real sense of pride in work and sense that Deloitte are "winning" in the consulting market.  Great socials (Michelin star meals, track days, theatre) and work-life balance very manageable (50 - 60 hours a week on average).
Cons: Contrived sales target system from Manager upwards - extensions rewarded in the same way as "green field" sales.  Can get into long term transformation programmes which cause you to "go native" at certain clients.  Senior (Director/ Partner) staff almost entirely focussed on relationship management; much less focus on content than at top-tier firms.
