I just cant handle the pressure and the stress in this role. I am working so hard that I have ZERO work life balance. The entire day just goes in meetings and meetings. I think that I don't know anything and am extremely worried about my future.
The work pressure is a lot here, deadlines are too tight and I have been vomiting from stress at night. The worst part is, Deloitte never pays for over time.
Anyone else feeling this in other Big4s? I want to switch ASAP or I will die here.
Try to switch
Prioritise your health
Take a break if you have too
Nothing is worth this much stress
Take care
This feeling is pretty normal. The work pressure that comes in big 4 is relatively high. Tight Target deadlines and high quality work is something which can be daunting. Love to connect with you and discuss further.
BTW what is ur base location?
Are you like from a v poor background or your daily food depends on this job? Even then it is highly questionable to do a job that's making you vomit at night. What's the point of earning crores and then die at 40 with the first heart attack?
Move on from this. It doesn't matter what your social circle thinks. Market is not good at the moment but cybersecurity is a recession independent area.
Switch to a bank if you work in cybersecurity. Going to another big4 will probably be the same. Wlb is bad for all consulting companies
Hey, let's connect. I am from Deloitte
Do some additional cyber security courses and take the leap. There are too many companies with this job profile. You will be better off.
I felt the same too at one of the big4. Please prioritise your health. I quit big 4 and now I'm on a break. It's a highly competitive environment. I remember once I put a section in column D instead of B, once I marked PY stamp in a different colour than what was told to me, and such petty things - and if I would do these things incorrectly, they would lash out on me. My friend's father was hospitalized and she was sitting outside and was working. No matter what happens in life, if it's the busy season going on,, they would not let us take leaves. and once the busy season is over, they would put us in the busy season of a different team so out of 12 months, for around 8-9 months we're working in the busy season of one or the other team and basically we used to work all day all night.
I couldn't enjoy my real brother's wedding peacefully as I knew once I'm back, my email would be flooded. And that's what happened, when I came back, my email was flooded with things like why haven't you done this, you cannot take leaves etc etc. If I would raise any concern in the team, they would start threatening me or they would just say it's all professional nothing personal. I feel corporates is not for me i guess
Hey, what are the interview for SAP cloud platform integration like in Deloitte?
Been here for quite some time now and I have been by far the top performer in my team. Still I am making less money year over year because of crap hikes and inflation. The pathetic hike I get barely makes a dent in the mental trauma that...
Why do so many people work in the Big 4 given that you have to work so many hours and your work life balance doesn’t exist.
Is having a Big 4 on your CV really worth all of that hassle and not having a life in your 20s?
What about...
I think the most lecherous of the people stay back in the big 4 and climb up the ladder to keep on making the culture...
I have an offer from Deloitte India and Ltimindtree. Both are offering near around same package and location Gurgaon. Any suggestion which one is best to join??
I don't know if there's any out for me. Since I cleared CA to join an audit firm to now TAS, life has been considerably disturbed so much so that now there is no will to live. Every comfort that a high-pressure job offers is something I ...
