No way. Deloitte also cares about career advancement and really emphasizes work/life balance...At least their on boarding decks say they do, I have yet to actually experience it

Industry! I'm going into the field I love with a great team who care not only about career advancement but also really emphasize work/life balance.

Also- advice that you can take or leave- I know a lot of people have been making posts about being depressed. If you're not happy in consulting it doesn't mean you're a failure. You might just not have been aligned with the right project or right team. NEVER let anyone tell you it's too early to start looking for another job, everywhere I interviewed didn't see it as a problem. Life's too short to live it unhappy. Don't give up

I work at PwC and having a blast, don't blame the whole firm bc you were on a shitty team..

Haha PwC 9 if you have a problem with me, you're more than welcome to contact me directly vs. hiding behind an anonymous forum. How embarrassing. Like KPMG 3 said, I blatantly stated I was laid off and the entire point of my post was to possibly help comfort people who are currently finding themselves in the same position. If anything, I was more truthful than necessary and absolutely more truthful than the majority of people in my position. You obviously didn't read my post, and I don't care if you do or don't - but don't anonymously talk shit about me. You're better than that (I hope)
