A great learning experience if you can put up with the office politics
Pros: Deloitte offers you great learning and fantastic exposure to unique client challenges across industries.
Cons: Deloitte hired, failed to train and integrate thousands of lateral, experienced industry hires over the past few years.  As a result, many of us have been pushed around by those who grew up at the firm hearing that there is "one way" of doing things and reprimanded when we offer an external, industry point of view.  The New York office culture can be exclusionary and cliquey, which ultimately dictates one's projects assignments, evaluations and career path.   

The amount of time I spend on average working on client work vs. dealing with internal nonsense is about 70/30, respectively.
