Read the small print Advisory brethren your salary will be reduced by the amount of time you take off, not sure about you but this seems like a foreshadow to eventually justifying reducing pay for underutilized resources or eventually leveraging paying current resources less than fair market value #staywoke

likehelpfulsmartfunnyuplifting

There is a chart that lists what percentage of salary you get based on the number of weeks you take off (for example, a leave of 8 weeks results in getting 87% of your pay for 26 biweekly pay periods...if you take 16 weeks I think the pay is something in the mid-70% range). Your PTO accrual and retirement contributions go down, too, based on how much time you take. But benefits do continue so you are covered in the event of injury, etc. Normal rules apply regarding employment on-the-side — still need to disclose and get approval. This is being billed as a perk, but is a way to save on the bottom line by reducing salary expense. Word has it they’re hoping a lot of Assurance people do it after busy season ends — when the work slows down — so they aren’t paying people to be on the bench. Have already had one RM try to push it on a Coachee for next February when she has no work lined up yet. On the bright side...you get your life back and can *truly* unplug so you don’t have to worry about check-ins or any of the other weekly crap we have to do.

Slalom no longer has a Sabbatical. Used to be able to take 3 mos off with full benefits and reduced pay @ 75% Salary. They got rid of it.

This is real, but only applies to Advisory folks, not consulting. You get reduced pay, but your utilization also freezes. Really good program as you can take this for any reason (spending time with family, traveling for leisure etc.)

Deloitte 21, D&T LLP is advisory. Deloitte Tax is it's own thing and so is Deloitte Consulting (a long with a few others). It's worth some Google time to understand our company structure as Advisory often has to deal with IFA. You will probably have to Google that as well....

Anyone hiring those who have been out of work for a year? I took time off to tend to personal matters, but I am now looking to get back into the workforce again. My previous experience includes time at B4 audit up to senior level and then transitioned to manager in industry. Senior/manager roles are preferred.

I don’t mind audit. However, I’d prefer it not to be at a B4, as I am looking for some semblance of a work life balance.

DM me if you have something above, thanks.

Have others found it hard to transition from Audit to Financial Analyst? All the recruiters I’m meeting with are telling me I probably won’t get an interview since they’re looking for someone who’s ready to hit the ground running.
It’s discouraging because I’m a fast learner, and from talking to my friends who are Financial Analysts, it doesn’t seem like what we do is so dissimilar.
