Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Started out great but deteriorated over time.
Pros: * As you would expect, Deloitte goes a long way on a CV;
* People are genuinely nice, especially at the lower levels;
* High quality people;
* The pay package is sufficient and better than average employer pension; and
* Great training and experience.
Cons: * Hours are very long and management is slow to hire new individuals to share the workload;
* There is definitely a clear focus on money over quality these days in my department;
* Higher levels are too busy to actually manage projects well;
* Breeds poor managers as the focus is on expertise rather than creating a high functioning team;
* High turnover rate and overall a distinct feel of dissatisfaction within teams; and
* Over emphasis over simple utilisation metrics which prove to be one-dimensional and create incentives for cutting time at the expense of quality and unrealistic time projections.
