Pros

Experience of working with highly motivated and competent people and with a diversity of clients that enhances and refines your accounting, business and soft skills

Cons

No appreciation for family life. The Partner mantra is "Firm First" before any other priority. There are well known Deloitte work place customization activities, but those initiatives are not typically or widely available to those who are on the more aggressive partner track. The firm also considers itself a "Career Enhancer" rather than a "Career Destination" meaning it doesn't necessarily view itself as a place where people should spend their entire career, rather its a stepping stone. I think this view is currently accurate but would prefer to see initiatives to embrace the "Career Destination" path.

Pros

*You will gain a wide variety of experience in a short amount of time. *The exposure to various industries, clients, and can only be compared to competitor firms. *More importantly, it is a great resume builder. *You will never work harder in your life. *You will have an opportunity to be a part of more than just your core work; you will have the opportunity to take on new roles in recruiting, peer representation, community representation, and other such roles. *You will be rewarded for being at the top your class after you leave the Firm. *If you can align yourself with the write partner, your career will be made.

Cons

*You will never work harder in your life. *Your life will be centered around your work. *Few people are paid well *Those that are paid well are highly underpaid (when compared to thier peers in industry). *Audit quality is often overlooked and customers are sometimes being cheated. *Work is not evenly assigned. Those that work hard and are the top of class are definitely overwhelmed. *Management is highly overrated *Few partners are technically astute *Align yourself with the wrong partner, and your career (even if you are at the top of your class) will be destroyed. *Be prepared to feel under-appreciated - even if you are the highest paid, most recognized, and strongest of your group.

Pros

Deloitte pays well, near the top... if not at the top. The people who know enough to stay at Deloitte for just a period are great, they are smart and are using Deloitte for what Deloitte delivers, a large network or smart people.

Cons

Deloitte needs to pay well so that you're willing to put up with the mediocre abilities of management. The company has too many smart people who lack ‘Social Intelligence’ trying to manage others. Instead of creating metrics on performance indicators such as retention, focus is placed on their ability to screw each other for better sales. As the economy slows, so do the interesting projects that clients are outsourcing to consultants. You are left with highly specialized grunt work for your professional growth. p.s. Forget your Work/Life Balance
