I am joining Deloitte India next week and I have received a mail from the recruitment team that I have assigned with a "Buddy" from Deloitte to help me guide through the beginning.

Is this a normal thing in Deloitte/Big4? What is the significance?

Yes normal thing in Deloitte. Big 4 would have similiar system. The person will be your go to peson for any generic process related things, help you understand Deloitte way of doing things (i.e. lingo), culture, etc. Basically an informal friend who will help you ease your early days in D.

Thank you for the clarification!

It's the same in EY as well, however the buddy himself was serving notice period when my friend joined 🤣

Hey, so I was offered a CDP position as an analyst in Accenture starting this fall, but today I just found out I got the Fulbright scholarship to be an ETA in Thailand for a year. It’s an honor of course, and I’m thinking about asking my recruiter if I could delay my Accenture start date for a year. Would it be worth it to do so? Is it even possible?

I’m beyond irritated by one of my coworkers. Just so disorganized, doesn’t show up to meetings, doesn’t reply to emails, constantly have to chase him, miss deadlines because of him. Management knows but does nothing about it. He really is a nice guy so it’s hard to hate him but I’m gonna lose it sooner or later. I’ve tried talking to him, I’ve tried escalating, putting reminders on his calendar. Nothing works. What are my options? Suck it up or leave? This is unnecessary stress for me

Hi everyone,

I have got the ey hr mail stating i should provide him with aadhar card, information sheet and latest resume for a audit and assurance contract for 6 months as iam a semi qualified CA.

Here my question is should i take this opportunity. Cause since this is only for 6 months. After that, what i can do, where should I try to get the job?

In mid size firms, people won't pay as much as big 4 pays.

Should I take it or am I making a mistake by taking this.
