What is up with the culture at Deloitte vs other firms. Last night I posted that I’ve noticed almost all partners and senior managers I’ve met are arrogant and pushy. Lots of people commented “that’s just a Deloitte thing.” Is that really true? If so what is going on at Deloitte that isn’t happening at other firms that breeds such cocky and pushy leaders?

I dont knoq but certainly tell them to keep their culture at Deloitte. KPMG will have none of it.

I actually really enjoyed most of the people I worked with at Deloitte.

D doesn’t kid around with the corporate kool-aid. (Used to work there - whew!)

It’s a culture that fosters sharp elbows and know-it-all attitudes. In other words, it’s a good place to work for adults who refuse to grow up.

I’ve said too much…

A lot of us validated that for you so why are you asking for another validation? Do you not want to believe it? Of course there are bad apples everywhere but it's one thing to promote that culture vs not.

Why am I asking for further validation? I’m wanting to know why what you pointed out exists. Why the snark? With that attitude maybe you should work here!

I loved most of my collegues at Deloitte, there were definitely some alpha types but they were in the minority
