Leadership favors employee that is with Deloitte for long time already even though that employee is toxic. They dont listen to what the staffs have to say. to their eyes, you are just a cog in the machine. they dont care about your wellness.
Pros

Very stressful, but good exposure
Senior (Former Employee) - Uae - December 27, 2021
The work environment can be very stressful, however the vast variety of clients can give you can experience which you may not get at other firms. Management does not listen to the concerns of the staff in terms of salary and compensation.

Good company just lots of politics
Marketing Associate (Former Employee) - Dubai - June 25, 2021
Working here was good experience but it seems like to advance you need to suck up to your superiors. Work - life balance was okay, good benefits but the pay didnt match the time you put in.

The management is really haphazard and the pay is very less as compared to the job expectations
Audit intern (Former Employee) - Dubai - May 29, 2021
There was no proper interview, the pay was extremely low and as an intern if you are to commute to a client place the cost is on you. The pay is slow and the entry and exit procedures to the job role is extremely slow and taxing. Worked over there more than a month ago and still waiting on my job experience letter. The hours of work starts from 8am and most times goes on till after 10pm

Its all worth it
Audit Senior Associate (Current Employee) - Sharjah - March 11, 2020
Entering this organization is not that easy, as all CPAs and with Bachelors degree in accounting wants to join this Big 4 Company. A typical day at work will require you to be competitive and constantly updated on technical knowledge in accounting in order for you to response correctly on clients query. Each employee were treated fairly regardless of the race and nationality. Top management are constantly involve in the day to day activities of the firm.
Pros
Numerous Trainings, Various Discounts, A lot of benefits for employees
Cons
Long Hours

Great learning opportunities and professional work environment.
Experienced Associate (Former Employee) - Sharjah - September 28, 2019
Depending on your nature of the Job you may spend most of your time at client's locations rather than working at office. However, when you are in office you have your own desk to do your work fitted with all necessary electric plug-ins, you will also have printing facilities available to take print outs of documents. Kitchen facilities are also there and free self-service tea and coffee is available.
I have learned a great deal while working at Deloitte Middle East and I have enhanced my Auditing skills.
Work culture depends on which office you work for. Generally it is professional environment but you may face work politics in some offices but often.
It becomes extremely busy after 31 December until June the following year if you are working in Audit Department.
Its ideal for someone who has passion to learn and improve their skills because one will face a new challenge daily while working for Deloitte.

Good learning experience
Senior Auditor (Former Employee) - Sharjah - April 18, 2019
Worked in the company for more than 4 years.
- Good pay and benefits
- Diversified client industry experience
- Very poor staff planning and management
- Unrealistic expectation from staff give the low budget and fees with clients.
- Major drawback was some "Partner" does note take ownership of the files and clients.
- Grown and promotions in the company are very subjective and not linked to your actual performance.
- You speak up and show off if you want to grow in the firm of else, how much efforts you put in does not count.
