How is service line consulting in Deloitte India (not USI), is it only applicable for Indian clients? Has anyone joined recently? Faced any issue with Work life balance ?
Deloitte Deloitte India Deloitte USI PwC EY

What’s your work-life balance like? I feel like I’m constantly working after hours, always balancing multiple projects, hardly ever going through a phase where there isn’t a ton of critical initiatives going on. It definitely wasn’t like this when I was a more junior PMM, but as a Senior PMM, my work-life balance has severely decreased. Is this just the nature of Product Marketing? Or can I actually find a senior PMM role that allows a bit more room to breathe?
