If I think Deloitte is toxic, would applying to McKinsey or a MBB be a bad idea?

MBBD

Nothing wrong with applying.

But I'd focus on identifying what are the tangible actions that are going on at Deloitte that make it feel toxic for you. Then figure out how to identify other companies or groups with similar traits.

That will help you pick the correct company in the future

What do you mean by toxic? Can help you understand if it's a delloite thing or a consulting thing

I am ex EY as well

Deloitte let go of 7-10% of workforce in 2020 due to "COVID" despite having its best year to date. Then their employees had to suffer massive staffing shortages when things bounced back.

Students with Deloitte offers had their offers pushed back up to a year "due to COVID".. still best year to date.

Culture is up or out and leaving the firm is spoken about verrryyy openly.

And then theirs the cult-like mentality that follows Deloitte people. Last time I checked, cults are toxic.
