Let’s be real — annual layoffs at D are around 5-7% (lowest performance bands or big HR issues), this year layoffs were 11%.

Everyone who stayed got a AIP and we are getting a big bonus this year. Our pay increases have also been moved up from September to June. Overall, they are doing their best to retain.

Also in comparison to PwC, Deloitte’s bonus is substantially higher. I have received
30% of base for three years prior to Covid (unheard off in PwC)

PWC2 - bitter Deloitte wouldn’t hire you?

funny

Based on our CEO's latest town hall, Deloitte is hiring rapidly since Fall of 2020 and expects to do so for Q1 and Q2 of 2021 in Consulting. There are still layoffs happening in certain parts of the firm but it isn't as many in numbers as it was last summer.

To D2 - every year Deloitte processes out 5-7 percent of its workforce on top of normal consulting attrition?

It includes some attrition (meaning, some of the roles are not put on order board for rehiring).

I lateraled into a niche practice group in Sept 2021. I also have a 1 year old and have been mostly remote since I started - but have been keeping busy tracking towards 2400-2500 hours. That said getting to know people only remote has been kind of awkward at times (email only can be tough to decipher) although as a working mom the pros vastly outweigh the cons. Yesterday my main partner asked me to come in Thursday bc he will be there and set a time to meet. Is this good/bad?? kind of nervous!
