Deloitte is a ethics oriented company in organization point of view only. But not in respect of employee point, example they are holding PLR bonus of earlier rating year for 03 months, and also should not be in notice period during the waiting time after appraisal cycle closes even. One more point, same grade employees are in different with benefits providing. These both really shocking and dishonours the employee contributions.

Exposure is high. Learning is good. Firm gives good visibility and learning opportunities since partners are closely involved in the studies. Good place for a 2 year stint.

Dislikes

Pay isn’t as high. Bad work life balance and weekend work is part of the culture. Firm has lower brand value compared to big 4’s. Firm has been around for a longtime, but hasn’t grown due to heavy dependence on just the same LT team which leaves little to no space for fresh minds. Weak middle management and high attrition at mid management.

It has been great experience working in PwC India for last 2 years. Overall work culture, job satisfaction and quality of work is really good. Also everyone is very supportive whenever needed. Medical Insurance policy is great though copay is raised to 15% from this year. Hybrid work policy is another key aspects here.

Dislikes

...s for learn things as work pressure remains constant and high most of the times. Also compensation wise, PwC is renowned but unfortunately last year hike percentage was very bad. Hope this will improve from the coming years.

Good culture in teams. Great learning. Some teams like international are better. They undertake complex work and have very good culture.

Dislikes

Salary parity is an issue when compared to competitors like Accenture. This is true for people undertaking relatively low complexity work in Accenture. Their salaries remain higher despite no appraisals given for a year. Salary is not determined at KPMG for people considering work they do, may be due to lack of understanding of HR regarding difference in work undertaken be each person. Poor salary also results in less skilled people getting hired requiring lot of counseling and guidance.
