Had potential, but doesn't stack up
Pros: It was cool at first to be able to achieve what you want and go your own way. Figure out what will work best for you as an individual. Lot's of smart, fun people. Free snacks were cool.
Cons: So it turns out you generally aren't working with those smart, fun people. Deloitte is all about individual performance and nothing more. This type of performance management breeds politics and shady business. It's all about getting on a project and getting as many client billable hours as possible; Nothing else matters to this business. Literally nothing. If you complain that you're working too many hours, you'll probably be discretely "separated" from the company. If you try to follow the core value of "elevate the human experience" and attempt to elevate the experience of your teammates, you'll be reprimanded for not getting enough client billable hours and most likely be "separated" from the company. If you have big ideas, you'll get no interest from management; Okay, maybe you'll get a little support and a lot of jaded, "good luck"s thrown your way. Not worth it. People here are under-appreciated, under-paid, under-utilized, and can do better. There are plenty of other companies with a stronger culture and better core values to work for. I swear, I'm not disgruntled. I just know Deloitte is trying to hire for a lot of roles right now even though they just laid thousands of people off last year. Don't fall into the trap.
