So tired of this Deloitte culture. SM's/PPD's scheduling post 7pm calls, PRD to do along w/ client work, always being nervous when you're on bench & having to constantly fend off requests to do extra

Buck up or ship out. Why do you think you make more than 90% of your comparable peers. It's because we expect it. You're not special. Unless you give me a reason to invest in you, I can and will replace you. #1000'storeplaceyou #uporout #fuckyourparticipationtrophy

^ not really. I left a shitty life in boutique and love Deloitte. Won't go anywhere else. Primarily because we win all the deals I'm in. I do the best deals. Ask anyone. The best. Great!

I've been working here for about two years now, and I have to say, I love my job. The company culture is great and the people are wonderful to work with. But recently, I've noticed that my manager has been asking me to do more and more work on my own without giving me any additional compensation for my time. He just keeps telling me that if I want to get ahead, then this is what I need to do.

I'm not sure what to do here—do you have any advice?

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know. Is this normal??
