  • 3. To what extent do you enjoy your programme?
  • Programme is good, the work can be tedious from time to time due to nature of job, team always good, company culture is basically just work hard and that is the expectation but I don't mind. Very different to what i expected.

  • 4. How valued do you feel by Deloitte?
  • Feel very valued, people expect way too much and it is normal to work 10-12 hour days but always thanked and i think the people I work for appreciate the effort that is put in.

    7/10

  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • Don't see the reason for the apprenticeship bit, all of the reflective statements are useless and don't show anything, just a waste of time to be honest but the rest is fine, ACA is a really highly regarded and worthwhile qualification and I feel like doing this on the job straight of school works well. There is a good support system in place. There is a lot of pressure on me to work lots and pass difficult exams but that is the nature of the job so that's totally fine. Reflective statements on top of that is just annoying.

  • 6a. How much support do you receive from your training provider?
  • Tutors are good, they teach and offer up time despite no one ever really staying afterwards.

    10/10

  • 6b. How much support do you receive from your employer?
  • Appraiser at Deloitte is also useful to have someone although again I am yet to really use them.

    10/10

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • Salary does meet costs of living just fine, although not much reason for us to get paid less than Graduates from what I can see. Do the exact same job with the exact same expectations. Also Graduate loan is far bigger again for no real reason. Maybe good to fix this.

    6/10

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • Yes there are plenty just have to know where to look if you can be bothered. More central things would probably be fun though, like a day off for the whole office to do something.

    9/10

  • 9. Would you recommend Deloitte to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • Good opportunity to get qualified straight out of school with a big name on your CV


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Deloitte?
  • Don't apply if you can't work a 60 hour week, this job isn't for you.
