Good learning opportunity
Pros: Deloitte offers a great environment to be thrust into a variety of situations. Within 6 months you may be thrown onto a project where you are expected to perform independently. This type of trust and responsibility helps you grow fast as a professional and begin to determine what it is you like/dislike about industries/public accounting.

The culture is generally good, with a very young work force, great perks (fitness subsidy, compensation for driving mileage, travel expenses, technology, etc.), and flexible hours.
Cons: The hours are generally not great. The flexibility is good, but it comes with the expectancy that you will complete all work within short deadlines, which tends to lead to a high volume of hours for an okay salary. It can be difficult to transition to a different role within the company, as there are many people vying for similar opportunities.

Work/life balance is improving, but can be difficult to manage with the workload that is put upon the employees with 1-5 years of experience.
