Company: Deloitte
Date: 2015-11-03
Overall rating: 1/5
Employment status: current
Experience level: Junior

Pays below market
Pros: Substantive experience early on (because you will working one level above your pay grade)
some smart people (too bad they leave ASAP).
fairly quick advancement (because everybody above you leaves as soon as they can). They promoted everybody in my start class a year early because they could not get enough managers
Cons: the company underpays at every single level (except maybe first year staff). This means anybody with even an ounce of talent leaves ASAP. This forces the firm to hire laterals from second rate local firms that have no idea what they are doing. I was a highly rated manager and I was making the same money as a second year senior at the other big four. the firm expects you to work 60-70 hours a week all year round while not even paying you enough to get your own apartment in the city.

firm management has no interest on the west coast. if you want to work in deloitte tax stay far far away from LA and SF.
