Deloitte sucks in ME btw. PwC is better. If you are interested in strategy roles, Monitor Deloitte is the best in the region

Did not know that. Any insight is great insight! Appreciate it.

Bad culture, no work life balance and low pay. Shortstaffed teams too. Poor leadership - Partners dont push back to unreasonable client demands and let the teams suffer. Weekend work is the norm. OP, may be you are a rare sample size who has it better in the firm.

Hello Everyone,

I have 4.3 YOE currently and I was offered Engr II - Full Stack position in VDSI. But after doing some research it seems Engr II is usually for YOE between 2 and 4. Is this correct? Will there be a problem for me if I take up this position with my YOE?
Since I am a lateral entry, I think promotion to Engr III also would take a lot of time.

Also can you please let me know the current designation hierarchy in VDSI?
