I stayed because I hated to move to cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Gurgaon etc. I don't love my job in particular it has its pros and cons but Hyderabad as a city is so damn good, less traffic & real estate prices are comparatively low. And for a MBA grad and Consulting professional there arent good jobs out there. But I might change soon as recently Deloitte USI is not as good it seems. 2020 pandemic showed their true colours with all that layoffs. On top of that lately I have seen more mediocre people being promoted to senior roles and talented people leaving the firm. Staying further in Deloitte USI doesn't looks good.
