Pros

- Vergütung - Prestigeträchtiger Markenname (allerdings nicht ganz so wie MBBs) - Intellektuell fähige Leute - Bürolage (bis jetzt) - Kaffee!

Kontras

- Interne Kultur: Für dienstältere Mitarbeiter ist die Kultur geradezu feindselig (auch bei Versetzungen von einem Land ins andere); intern bekommen Sie viel mehr Kummer als durch Kunden; die durchschnittliche Amtszeit der dienstälteren Mitarbeiter liegt zwischen 6 und 12 Monaten... Neuere Mitarbeiter erleben eine unternehmerische Drohnenfabrik, die eine wettbewerbsfähige und clanähnliche Kultur fördert, einem Kult nicht ganz unähnlich; die Neueren müssen bereit sein, diese Zwangskultur zu leben, eine ordentliche Menge Missbrauch zu tolerieren und am Altar einer Handvoll älterer Mitarbeiter, deren Position hauptsächlich auf ihre Amtszeit zurückzuführen ist, Ehrfurcht zu üben. Viele der Leute beißen nachts in ihre Bettdecken... - Umgebung: Im Gegensatz zu meinen Erwartungen wegen des äußeren Erscheinungsbilds des Unternehmens gibt es eine ungewöhnliche Menge an Frauenverachtung, Eifersucht und beiläufigem Rassismus von dienstälteren Leuten. Ich nehme an, dass das bei Deloitte nicht die Norm ist; innerhalb dieses Büros war es aber ganz sicherlich so. - Work-Life-Balance: Lange Arbeitszeiten sind in der Beratung die Regel. Aber hier wird die Arbeitsbelastung durch die endlose Reihe von Maßnahmen erhöht, die man ergreifen muss, um sich denjenigen anzugleichen, die Neuankömmlinge ablehnen. Es gibt auch eine unnatürlich hohe Anzahl an Burn-outs (etwa 4 von 10, die meist als Monate des „Reisens“, der „Zeit zum Aufladen“ oder als Karrierepausen getarnt werden). Mein Fazit: Als Absolvent eingestellt werden, grinsen, alles für ein paar Jahre ertragen und dann zu besseren Perspektiven (Beratung oder Industrie) gehen. Bei jeder höheren Position als der des Managers sollte man lieber Reißaus nehmen!

Pros

These folks know exactly what they are doing. They set high standards, and consistently deliver. Their project expectations and planning is excellent. The top level management folks are extremely smart and have a great sense of vision and planning. If you go to company social events (which are very frequent by the way), it is quite easy to have conversations with upper management people (Partners). Deloitte's hiring pattern is very consistent. For the young starters, they hire smart, well spoken, and subtly aggressive candidates. They have excellent training and knowledge management. They have a well oiled and empowered HR and Tech Support group. Things get done pretty fast. Their paid time off program is really great, and pretty straight forward. No messing about. They have a big social responsibility program that encourages volunteering. It also presents a great opportunity for youngsters to take event organizing responsibilities. This can be very very useful. Once, I volunteered for an event where we painted rooms for an orphanage center. There was a young guy who did the organizing. We were 10-12 people, with 3 senior executives actually doing paintwork. Quite unique. I have personally seen that Deloitte's top talents tend to start young, spend a 3-4 years, then take a hiatus to pursue a Graduate Degree (typically an MBA). The firm sometimes re-hires these consultants after their MBA with generous financial incentives. They offer much better packages to folks graduating from top universities. Sometimes they can offer huge joining bonuses. I worked in the IT consulting division.They tend to get top-end projects. On projects, the average age seems pretty low. A lot of 20-somethings, then there are a handful of 30-40 year old people and some senior Management folks. Beginner salaries can be a bit low. (which is expected. It takes some time to build credibility in the Consulting business) Overall, a great place to start your professional career. If you pay attention, you will get seasoned very quickly.

Kontras

Work-life balance can become poor, especially during tight project timelines (This is expected in the Consulting Business). The employees have a significant amount of "firm-internal" training and knowledge contribution tasks. There are annual goal expectations. It can get tedious if you continuously work on high demand projects. There is intense competition, especially during targeted promotion/milestone years. There can be some backstabbing. It's part of the experience. It is not as bad as it sounds, and seems manageable. A lot of times, being young and inexperienced has it's flaws. The company has a simple way of seasoning consultants. They get pushed into high pressure situations, and they learn fast, and quickly start managing their own work. But they tend to be blind towards intricate details, especially in complicated IT product implementations. This has an interesting effect. If someone is able to do the hands-on work, everyone else tries to piggy-back on that person for their actual work. The hands-on guy gets overwhelmed, and others try to use him/her as a key resource. -- I personally went through a crunch project, and found a number of people "managing expectations" (piggy backing), while a handful of people actually knew the end-to-end solution and did the hands-on work. This created a lot more work and mental anguish than needed. Because of the expressed pressure, the hands-on guys have a hard time building and growing their reputation and subsequent performance evaluation rating. This also affects the project execution timelines. IMPORTANT: Make sure you thoroughly read through your employment agreement and understand the implications. In recent years, they have started hiring for specific projects ONLY. This falls under a particular "AMS service line". In this case, if your assigned project gets into a problem, you are exposed to the risk of employment termination. Their HR and Management are very helpful, and they will try to get you a new project. But there are several constraints like location, your skills, and limited time. I went through this, and it was somewhat unnerving. This was one of the reasons I ended up leaving the company.
