Why in the hell does PTO only count against utilization for PDM?! I'm sick of the answer that we are only client because that's BS. We still should get time off. Not to mention parental leave is freaking 2 weeks which isn't even minium for women giving birth (6 weeks of everything goes well). Then if they take PTO they never recover utilization and can't take off if kids gets sick. I'm sick of this and no one is listening or responding when this is brought up on calls.

I thought that the occasional visits from the recently divorced single mother that moved in down the hall was the best thing that ever happened to me. I was wrong, getting that mouse jiggler is the best thing that ever happened to me.

Anyone leave Deloitte for Booz Allen? Thoughts or experiences? Utilization and compliance are absolutely doing my head in.

God, I miss my nice/peaceful commute home. Listening to a podcast in traffic was one of the highlights of my day

Hi guys,

I need an advice/suggestion here. I got an offer from 2 different organisations and choose one among them (Role: Analyst) because of the culture and benefits. And the other offer has a good pay and good designation (Associate Consultant) rather than the one I choose. Now i feel very low due to this decision that I took. I feel like I have settled down for a lower package and a lower designation. Is there anything that I can do in the current organisation that I’ve joined at a week back

What is the potential contract rate or full time salary for a python full stack developer in Toronto ?

There is an opportunity that I’m currently interviewing for that is very interesting to me. I’m interviewing two other places but I’m not responding to LinkedIn emails for other positions. The other positions don’t interest me as much. On one hand I don’t want to waste time prepping for all positions and rather put that time only for the ones that I have going on, on the other hand I feel like what is that falls through. Wondering if I’m making the right choice

So I just started a new job in sales (B2B specifically). All my life I’ve been in blue collar jobs, military, then construction work ect.

I guess what I’m looking for is just tips on how you guys were successful walking into a whole new arena if that makes sense?

Is PDM ever going to be less crappy?

Out of curiosity, former Deloitte PDM employees—- has being in PDM affected your ability to get out and find better opportunities?

Recently joined the firm as a project delivery specialist. During recruiting, the team harped on how great my background was and how much a good fit I would be for the firm/project...

Well, I was on an onboarding call and they were talking about staffing and projects. The presenter said to reach out to them if you don’t think your project is a good fit. In his words “you were hired into the firm, not a specific project. We see you here long term... With the exception of PDM model” 😅
Cont.

Interested about PDM stats. Like if you got a comp adjustment and comment if you didn’t.

What was deloitte AIP for PDM practitioners in 2021 ? My offer letter says you're eligible upto 9% . Did anyone in PDM get anything close to 9% ?

My project client location in Denver started in person mandatory days. Few of colleagues started to go there. I’m confused as I was hired as PDM and I live in east coast and project is in west coast. My leadership is not forcing me anything and they left it to us but I don’t want to lose job because I’m not traveling. Any suggestions?

It's day 2 for me at Deloitte (PDM) , just received my laptop yesterday , completed a few of the trainings and created/uploaded my resume. Coach and onboarding advisor have not been assigned yet. When do I get assigned to a project? What does that process look like ? How long does this orientation go on for ? And do I have to transfer all my stocks from robinhood to one of their approved brokerages?

How many PTOs we have in project delivery model? Today was my first day and I could not find this information anywhere.

Can you help explain why a team would be able to afford hiring an individual under PDM at a higher salary but unable to offer the same package under the Traditional route?

For context, I’m currently negotiating for a role and have expressed some of my concerns. My recruiter has been very helpful, but I’d like to better understand the reasoning before making my decision. The offer is $100k for PDM, but $85k max if brought on as Traditional.

Thank you for your help and any additional thoughts!

What are the requirements to promote from analyst to senior analyst? I’ve been with Deloitte for two years now and am wondering how I go about making myself promotable. I don’t have a CPA, CFE, etc. Is one of those required?

PDM specialist at 96k. I have an option to select PDM Specialist 2 or PDM Manager for my promotion with the PPMD. Which one is advisable to prefer Pay wise? I am thinking to take PDM 2 to increase my base pay for the manager.

Switching from PDM 2 to SpM, should I expect a pay adjustment?

As an analyst, can I expect to see a salary raise in a couple of weeks? Or an AIP? And if so how much of each?

Did anyone else need to get PPMD Approval to participate in Firm Initiatives/Contribution activities? Just emailed my resource manager to get involved and she said I had to get approval first.

How many PDMers in here are happy to be PDM?

How many wish they were core/traditional?

Do PDM analysts get performance year end bonuses and AIP?

Any idea what will be criteria for PDM to start green card process?

Most of the folks in PDM received no adjustments is it same on other projects too
