Overall rating: 2/5
Employment status: current

Long hours no overtime compensation.
Pros: Delloite has no real benefits that any of the big four firms do not have. I suppose it is good to have on your resume when you switch to another firm ( which it appears that 90 percent of people plan on doing). They have some decent benefits such as gym subsidies( unfortanately you dont get the time off to get to the gym) If anyone is thinking about going to the big four think hard. I would definately reccomend going to a  place that pays you overtime for the time that you put in and is more equitable with there employees.
Cons: I have been working at deloitte for a little over six months including one  busy season. Busy season was extremely difficult With long hours and no overtime pay. I was expecting the hours to decrease following busy season but this did not happen. The earliest that I have gotten out of the clients office was 8:00 and this only happened a few times. I was also put on a client in an industry that I am completely uninterested in.   I spoke with my counselor and scheduler to try and get my client changed and got turned down. It is interesting that there are many employees who are unassigned for months at a time while there are others who sit in the office until 11:00 at night.
