This doesn't seem like a fun question anyways. I mean, it's 100% conjecture, with no way at all to verify anything.

DT buys Starbucks for you guys?! Baker Tilly spends on average $0 per day.

Busy season Starbucks spend per head: $10 x 6 days x 4 weeks x 3 months = $720 per person. Let’s assume an office of 200 client-facing individuals and that’s about $144k/year. But those Starbucks runs are billed back to the Client for the most part. So technically closer to $0? Back of the napkin calculation but perfectly within the realm of possibility.

I’d say a good, solid $0 per day.

Have never had a Starbucks coffee. Not paying that kind of money for a cup of coffee.

I’ll kick it off.. my office doesn’t have a budget when it comes to Starbucks which is located in the office. Numerous groups go at least one, usually twice and during busy season three times a day. I’d estimate Deloitte spends easily ~1,000-1,500 a day on Starbucks for the Tax group.

I want to work for DT, all our office has the flavia packets

I don’t think anyone in my office leaves their seats. Starbucks is across a four lane intersection from my office so no one really goes. There’s a small crepe cafe downstairs that I frequent.

We have Starbucks/non Starbucks coffee, hot tea, iced tea, lemonade, etc machines on every floor. No clue what it costs the firm, but I’m for it

A lot. There are coffee runs on average once a day, during busy season often twice a day. And it's usually independent coffee shops that are more expensive than Starbucks.

As much as I love free coffee/drinks/etc, it honestly pisses me off that we're being paid peanuts when our team spends thousands on coffee runs and happy hours.

We have cold brew on tap for free in our office!

Enough to double everyone's bonus

I was wondering if the review course “CPE Self Study Course” for the CFF was enough preparation to study and pass the CFF exam. The CFE review course was enough and like if you get a question wrong it explains it well so that when it comes up in a different way in the real exam you can still get it. But when I saw the outline for the CFF material and there seems to be a lot of topics so I was wondering if the review course was sufficient considering this exam is also multiple choice. Thanks!
