Overall rating: 4/5
Employment status: current

It was fine until they botched COVID
Pros: Travel (N/A during COVID) 
Good reimbursements/perks for travel, good healthcare 
Good, friendly people -- easy to make friends and connect with people at all levels of the company
Happy hours/networking events/conferences 

I am glad I came to Deloitte. It's a good first job and I have a solid network. I really appreciate the friends I made, the people I met, and the skills I learned.
Cons: As with all consulting, you are beholden to a client always
Travel makes it hard to have friends or family back home and you mostly just work the whole time you're there
VERY bad salary
Hours are terrible 

Long-term projects are worse than short-term projects. There's a "work till you drop and then some more" culture, as well as a lack of long-term planning from leadership that leads to constant fire drills. 

They shouldn't have laid off so many people or given out no raises. Some leaders gave false reassurances about how well the firm was doing. If you can afford to sponsor the US Open, you can afford not to lay people off.
