Fish peeps, is EY better than Deloitte as far as work/life balance, respect, humanity, etc? FYI, I care more about my life/body than work, progression, optics, etc...

Been at both firms. If you truly care about your life/body, then get out of consulting, seriously 😔

Ey1 is right. If you are consistently “meeting expectations” then nothing beats work/life flexibility at EY.

Better if you're a low performer

Overall probably EY over Deloitte, but at deloitte it really varies per group and even more per project

Deloitte is too cut throat. Been on too many projects now where they make you skip the gym or make you work on holidays with an IDGAF attitude.

Easy to say but sometimes we have little control over how projects will shape out when you’re staffed.

IMO yes. There are some like EY1 that define high performer as killing yourself all the time. But , I’ve found EY to be pretty refreshing in this area. As M1 said it is still consulting. EY1 is also right that EY can carry some meh performers too long.

Op you need to find better projects and leaders to work with at Deloitte. The whole firm is not like that

Sounds like it’s time for you to leave. Working somewhere you are not happy is no fun

OP, just to add more details. While EY feels more “laid-back”, that quickly goes away as you become an M/SM at either firms. So unless you are OK with being a tenured Senior, then this is the time for you to consider leaving consulting altogether. If you think skipping the gym is bad, you’ll be skipping a lot more, which sucks when you have kids 😔

OP which firm do you work with now?

EY doesnt push out low performers which sucks but also is less stressful

Assuming the following holds tomorrow, I expect we will get a call of AZ around 11:15am ET, and NV and PA around 12:15pm ET.

AZ: next batch of Maricopa ballots 55% or less for Trump
NV: Biden wins >60% of next batch of ballots in Clark County
PA: Biden extends lead beyond 35K ballots

My intuition is that the networks want to call all three to provide extra margin for error given the stakes and fine margins.
