Approves of CEOI have been working at Deloitte full-time (More than a year)
Pros
They offer you good opportunities to get ahead and advance your career. Work with many different teams and in many different industries. Work with many people your same age.
Cons
Work life balance can be tough. Work has a lot of travel involved, with travel happening around the country. It can be tough to stay on top of local and personal things.
Advice to Management
Keep trying to maintain an understanding with employees. It is important to keep communication open between different teams and to make it feel like there is good connection. Learning and development are a large part of this job.

Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Deloitte full-time (Less than a year)
Pros
A lot of great people to work with and constantly learning new things. If you can manage to stay and complete your CPA, you are basically set.
Cons
Zero work-life balance, especially client dependent. If you get stuck on multiple year-end/out-of-town clients you will begin to slowly lose motivation.
Advice to Management
Schedule better

Pros
Decent pay, amazing perks, great corporate culture
Cons
Hours will destroy you. My busy season was 9am-2am some nights. That made my hourly pay less than a McDonalds employee.
Advice to Management
If you want to retain your people, pay them more.

Professional development. Personal growth. Industry experience. Management perspective. Meals are paid for during busy season. Great opportunity to learn from the most talented individuals.

Pros
Great work flexibility, good benefits. The best and the brightest work here, and it shows.
Cons
Just below industry pay. You have to set boundaries as far as how much work you can handle, because they will keep giving it to you until you say you've had enough.

Pros
Name value of Deloitte sure doesn't disappoint - even as a first year auditor, the learning curve is steep and you learn the ins and outs of the basic core of a business, how it runs, how it shouldn't run, and have the opportunity to interact with individuals ranging from staff accountant to corporate controller to VP of finance. For anyone with a business/economics/accounting background, this is an awesome start to your career. People on your team are extremely smart individuals who have stayed and are still employed for a reason. Granted, there may be differences of opinion and experiences depending on which client and team you are assigned to.
But it really is what you make of it out of your own career, as no one is going to teach you how to steer your own ship.
Fantastic experience so far, haven't stopped learning, and everyday is a challenge.Cons
Nothing to complain about

Pros
PTO, PTO , and liberal swipes of the AMEX.
Cons
The hours, expectations, and culture.
Advice to Management
People are more productive when they are happy and working regular hours. The marginal productivity of each employee sharply declines after 8 hours. The company would be better off hiring seasonal employees (i.e., more people, larger teams/staff) during busy season, or even giving employees the option of being hourly.
