Deloitte's poor management & culture is starting to wear on me. Prob some residual resentment at how layoffs were handled tbh. Has anyone left D for another Big 4 & care to share if grass is greener?

I am incredibly happy with my management team so it's not a firm wide problem. We also didn't have any layoffs in my market.

I came to K from D and it's the best effi has decision of my life. D drained my life and expected me to say "thank you senpai" for it. K isn't all roses, but in general it's so much better it's almost hilarious. I have now turned down all other big 4s to stay here.

I'm ex Accenture. Same thing at all B4 really. I joined Slalom for rue culture and better pay... We do better work too. People care about the work vs. just money in the pipeline here.

The cultures are all roughly the same. They vary in ways that would be specific to those that know the other firms, but are the same to outsiders. K was much more about EE engagement and EE satisfaction focused than D, but didn't have to deal with scale that D does, either (still miss my summer gift and numerous encore awards). Don't forget D culture is far more insular than rest of B4 because they were never broken apart. Remainder are realigned puzzle pieces that had to redefine their culture after seeing forced "marriages" that failed miserably. At K, mgt consulting is more laid back because it isn't king of the castle. Deals is. Their culture is much closer to D Consulting - hours, expectations, etc. others may disagree, but my experience says satisfaction is more defined by team and project than by overall firm decisions.

Does anyone think it’s weird that my firm is bending over backwards to try to keep a first year staff from leaving the firm after she was rated a 2 this year. But now she’s trying to leave and they keep trying to push her to stay saying she can be a partner in 8-9 years and laying it all out in detail. The issue is they laid off other staff (all but her) so maybe that’s it? Find it very odd.

- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
