• Arrogant managers and stressful environment. Avoid at all costs. They will threaten you all the time to break you down; trashy company

• Bad experience working here. Poor manager acted like a tyrant. Lots of good people but feel sorry they are being taken advantage of in terms of excessive work demands, non-supportive environment.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• J'ai travaillé là pendant plus de 6 mois, j'ai crié injustice à un moment à cause d'une situation ou tout le monde était impliqué, une semaine après je me suis fait montré la porte!
  
  très mauvaise expérience, à mon contrat je pouvais travailler de la maison et on ne me l'a jamais permis sauf quand c'était dans leur intérêt juste pour faire de l'overtime!   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• Je suis parti après une très mauvaise expérience. Étant au bas de l'échelle et à la fin de la chaîne, je n'ai connu que le dédain, la froideur, les attentes et délais irréalistes doublés de plaintes (qui arrivaient parfois même avant les dossiers), les demandes contradictoires (qui arrivent d'abord sous forme de plaintes de part et d'autre), l'abus, le manque de communication flagrant, la poigne de fer, le chantage et la manipulation ad nauseam; et la qualité de mon travail n'était pas en cause dans tout cela. Le personnel manque alors ils se contentent d'ajouter une pression malsaine sur les employés et de les blâmer de recevoir des dossiers déjà en retard. Les conditions (salaires, avantages sociaux, vacances) sont bonnes, mais pour leur prétention de flexibilité et de reconnaissance envers les employés, c'est tout le contraire que j'ai connu. Je ne recommande cet employeur à personne.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• If you are a junior business grad hoping to get you CA, this might be an ok job for you. Note that you WILL be competing against the kids of their rich clients, so adjust your expectations accordingly. As a Senior employee entering the firm, with more knowledge and contacts with the local business elite (C-Level persons) I can say the engagement and compensation was...Meh. Having brought in significant sales and working on large billable projects, I can say the compensation was lacking to the extreme. However, as my current billables pass $500K this year, I guess I should say thanks, or GFYSD.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• One of Deloitte's major weakness is its lack of communication between its managers and employees. During my time working for this company, a few seniors had quit leaving the audit department with no new recruits to fill these positions. On the same token, the GES (ie. Tax) department also experienced a shortage of employees within the last year due unhappy employees leaving.
  
  Do not expect a reference/confirmation from Deloitte when you do decide to leave because you will not be able to track anyone down, which can significantly weigh on your livelyhood. It is Deloitte's policy to NOT give references.
  
  In my opinion there has been such a high turnover rate within Deloitte due to the lack of due care and unprofessionalism on part of managment, which I have experienced first hand.
  
  I do not recommend this company to anyone.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• This is one of the most poorly run organizations in Canada, in my opinion. They cannot even accurately forecast their own budgets / spends so why would anyone hope they could assist others? Employees who work to support the organization are considered second class citizens and treated differently than client facing employees. Despite claims to the contrary, work life balance is often not supported, even when it can easily be accommodated. While the policies and visions say all the right things, the practical application of these fall far short. Employees are frequently not fairly compensated for the level and degree of difficulty of the work they perform. Internally it runs more like a unionized environment than a cutting edge professional services firm. Despite claims to the contrary, true innovation is slow to happen at best, and worse still often frowned upon. Their people systems and processes are archaic at best. The strength of the brand frequently attracts top talent. The reality of the life "behind the magic curtain", more frequently results in employee dissatisfaction, and high turnover of truly great resources.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• My Manager pretty much hired me to cover the christmas holidays and keep head count. Let me go with no reason at exactly 2 months and 2 days and then reposted my job for only 1 day. I guess it only takes one day to get the person who you really wanted to apply! Whatever the case may be my spouse was already laid off and now my manager knowing this screwed my life up both of us are now unemployed... Yeah its not the company but you know what management represents the company... would never go back!   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• I worked there on a 15-month contract, a month after start of my contract, I noticed all the issues that I hadn't been signed up for. There was a huge GAP in their communication, even managers weren't talking to each other. Being surprised was something very common. The work/life balance was horrible, and don't get me started on the people management.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• Terrible place to work. Morale is very low in the Vancouver office and I expect them to lose clients in the coming year due to understaffings in order to increase the bottom line. Expect to be worked to the bone here so the partners can make a few extra pennies in an environment that is now driven by fear under the new leadership. I expect them to become the next EY of Vancouver.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• I've worked for companies that are outright corrupt and blasphemous, but my experience at Deloitte, surprisingly, was the worst out of the fare. This is ironic, considering how bright and wonderful the brand is often advertised.
  
  Politics are over-the-top rampant and ripe. People will go as far as send e-mails sucking up to managers just so that they can get on top. As someone previously stated, If you like politics, this firm is for you.
  
  There is practically no teamwork, which is ironic considering how they boast how great the people are during recruiting. When your trying to learn how to do your job, people are either too busy to help you or simply don't care enough to give a damn. People here can be cold as well. Quite often, it is much easier working with the clients than it is to work fellow colleagues.
  
  Hours can be quite long. At least 45 to 50 hours is the norm. As you move up, it can be more. Hence, work-life balance is often an issue, despite how they expound on work-life balance during recruitment.
  
  The only thing good I can say about this firm is the compensation. It isn't over the top, or spectacular, compared to certain industries, but it will get you buy unless your an over-the-top materialist who desires a large house and a large family. The only thing about compensation, however, is that you don't get paid overtime. You are not compensated for those 45-60 hours that you can potentially put it during a week.
  
  One thing that the firm often harps is that when you work at Deloitte, they treat you like a professional. In a way, they do, because they expect you to know quite a bit off the bat. Unfortunately, this also means that they might not necessarily treat you as a human being. You will often experience tight deadlines that will either have ethical consequences or is simply unachievable.
  
  Unless your bent on becoming a chartered accountant or consultant of some such, consider your options carefully. There are, quite frankly, better jobs out there, and while Deloitte stands at one of the top in terms of reputation, always be skeptical and take the brand for what it does. This company might work for you, or it might not, but don't take too much light on what they say if your going through one of their recruitment campaigns.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• Economic conditions dictated that Deloitte had to make a downsizing decision. A lot of ppl that were let go were good performers. Partners have been very distant and unhelpful for the most part. its the Managers and senior Managers that have to tend the flock even though downsizing decisions are made exclusively by the partners.
  there is little or no empathy for employees and their necessities   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• very disapointed in my experiences working for this firm. i put much of that on a very, very bad director, but it looks like this wasn't an unusual experience. it's really frightening - the dichotomy between the brand on the street and the experience working there.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• i agree with the all comments that it is the worse place to work!!! manager/supervisors had the right to pick the most negative feedback over the positive. managers were were lazy, the most laughable phrase i had from my manager when asked a question "great question, i'll have to get back to you on that one." idiot never did, & hr was worse, considering the rep from hr needed a family member hired.   read complete rating Hide complete rating

• Those familiar with the consulting lifestyle know that most of a consultant's life is spent on client sites, which may influence some ratings associated to workspace. I personally enjoyed the client project work even if the hours (45+ hours/week, not including firm development work of up to 15 hours/week) were not allowing any kind of work/life balance. The firm is notorious for hiring new grad fresh off university, just the type of candidates that can be easily molded to a culture with minimum resistance and no previous experience to compare their employer to. A lot of emphasis is spent on BRANDING, both branding of the firm and branding of yourself as a consultant. As a result, Deloitte projects a spotless brand image to the marketplace, which could be misleading for a prospective employee (though firm values and code of ethics are the best I've see across any industry, not all Deloitte practices do internally what they promote externally). Senior leadership at the national level is charismatic, engaging and motivating. Unfortunately the overall political environment and poor career management in most Deloitte practices are simply overwhelming, by far eclipsing all the good things the organization has to offer. New hires join and leave after two years, a pattern that is seen across the organization. I quote a previous rating on this site that explains it all: "Career advancement at Deloitte has nothing to do with your contributions to client and firm development projects, it's all about how much credit you can take for other people's work and how many of your mistakes you can blame on your colleagues. Deloitte Consulting is not a firm where the best consultants establish a career, but it is a place where mediocre consultants who are great office politicians can find success."
