Former Consultant
Pros: Absolutely there are pros here,
1. Deloitte has a little edge in paying more to the employees compared to its competition.
2. You find people very professional.
3. Great social welfare activities are involved here, they call it as "Impact Day". You can volunteer by going to Govt schools to help the poor. This is a team activity, Deloitte bears the whole expenses for this.
3. Super flexible working hours (no swipe ins and outs). No compulsion to stay in office for any specific hours. You can go home and connect whenever you feel like to (of course, it depends on you Lead or Manager).
4. The laptop that you get right on your date of joining, is of top notch high end, light weighed, full touch enabled, convertible to tab. Extremely superior one to handle that. It looks even great too. Companies that Deloitte tied up is with Dell & HP.
5. Decent hikes (9% to 25 - 30% depends).
6. Believe me guys, Deloitte pays you full variable pay even if you are not a top performer. Minimum variable pay that any employee gets here is 100%. If you perform well enough it varies from 100% to 200%. Usually the variable pay component says 0 to 10% of your fixed pay.
Cons: 1. One man show runs in most of the projects. 
2. Work is extremely challenging (not just challenging).
3. Too much of documentation work. You end up documenting more than the work that you do.
4. Above Variable pay scenario (explained in the Pros section) is applicable only if you get the required level in the Deloitte's English exam (mandatory for every employee to take this exam). 
There are 3 levels: low to high there are Foundation --> Advanced --> Mastery.
--> Consultant designated employees should get "Advanced" level.
--> Senior Consultant and above that designated employees should get "Mastery" 
        level.
If the employees do not get their required level, then he / she should keep attempting the test (once in every 6 months). No limitations in taking the test.
*** The result is directly proportional to the variable pay and the promotions.
