Struggling...
Pros: (1) Amazing colleagues.   (2) Outstanding portfolio of work to choose from and encouragement to try different projects.  (3) A multitude of activities outside of client work to get involved in, both to grow your career and to get to know your colleagues.   (4) Solid benefits to include more than generous leave and support/funding of certifications and higher level education.
Cons: (1)  Expectations:  in addition to averaging 40 hour client weeks, staff are expected to put in a BARE MINIMUM of 5-10 hours weekly in additional contributions.  So to be an "average" employee - you're expected to put in no less than 45 hours and most likely 50 for most career models. (2)  New compensation philosophy with more of a focus on bonuses.  Although in principal a good concept, the majority of the pot is reserved for "top performers" and with a sea of type-A, high performers....most folks aren't going to be a "top performer" in Deloitte's eyes.
