Don’t let Deloitte destroy your career. This is NOT the place to be.

People keep talking about Deloitte’s hiring process, aptitude rounds, interviews, prestige, blah blah. Nobody talks about what actually happens AFTER you get selected.

Let me tell you.

Deloitte USI was claiming to pay around 7.6 LPA CTC to people from NITs/IITs for analyst-level roles. But the actual amount you get in your account per month is only 45,700 (exactly). And for many other colleges, even less. Imagine grinding through engineering, coding rounds, internships, projects, only to end up getting paid peanuts by a company that sells itself like some dream destination.

And the worst part? They make you wait months before joining, only to dump you into these painfully basic “training” programs.

I’m not exaggerating when I say they teach things at a level where if you already know how to use your laptop and have basic technical understanding, you’ll feel your brain melting. It genuinely feels designed for people with zero exposure to tech.

For months, your life becomes:
- endless lectures
- useless assignments
- dummy projects
- assessments after assessments
- internal exams
- forced learning modules

Meanwhile, your friends in other companies are already working on real projects, gaining actual industry exposure, learning from real teams.

At Deloitte USI, you’re stuck pretending PowerPoint training and Spark modules are “career growth.”

Then comes the biggest scam people don’t warn you about: THE EXAMS. ⚠️

I saw so many posts saying:
“Don’t worry, even if you fail the assessment, Deloitte will still keep you.” Absolute bullshit.

They can and WILL push people out.

No transparency. No proper evaluation discussion. No clarity on where you went wrong. You ask for another chance, ask to be moved to another batch, ask to see your evaluation — nothing. They’ll corner you into resigning instead of formally firing you.

Imagine getting campus selected in college, believing your future is secure, waiting months for onboarding, surviving all their nonsense training… only to realize your job was never actually guaranteed.

And once you’re finally inside?
- Weekend meetings.
- Work pressure.
- Constant expectations.
- Fake corporate positivity.

The first two days are designed to emotionally manipulate you into thinking you joined some world-class organization. Fancy presentations, big global names, “we care about employees,” “inclusive culture,” all that corporate theatre.

None of it matters when your actual day-to-day life is miserable.

And please stop romanticizing Deloitte culture online. The coffee mugs, office aesthetics, LinkedIn posts, “Big 4 life” nonsense — none of that reflects the reality most freshers experience.

If you genuinely want to learn, grow technically, and work on meaningful projects early in your career, there are far better places.

Deloitte USI survives because of its brand name and the desperation of fresh graduates who think any big company logo automatically means success. Stay away if you value your mental peace.✌️

PS 1: To all the freshers seeing this, this post is not meant to demoralise you. This post is to bring the reality infront of you. For you to know what are the practices in the organisation you’re planning to join, so if you can hustle your way into going ANYWHERE better, you’d thank yourself for having read this and acted upon it.

PS2 : To the folks who went ahead and looked up my Reddit profile, and say why do I care, I work at Amazon OR say this profile/post is fake. I simply don’t care to prove you or anyone else right. I wrote this post because someone really close to me suffered a lot in this company and I have innate hate for this place. I want people to at least know what they are getting themselves into, something my person didn’t at his time. It’s all good karma, so say whatever you want to :)

Need advice on switching jobs during probation period

I graduated recently and had applied to multiple companies during placements/job hunting. One company responded quickly, I cleared the interviews, attended one week of training in another state, and joined their Mumbai office. I have been working there for around 2 weeks now, around 3 weeks total including training.

Now, a much bigger MNC that I had applied to around 3 months ago has suddenly shortlisted me and scheduled a telephonic round. The role, brand value, and pay are significantly better than my current company, so I do not want to miss the opportunity.

Here is where I am confused:

I still have not received my official offer letter or soft copies of the documents I signed during training.

One document mentioned a 1 month notice period.

The company says the first 6 months are probation.

My questions are:

Should I tell the MNC during the telephonic round that I am currently employed?

If they ask for my offer letter or experience letter, what should I say since I have not received those yet?

How do I professionally explain leaving a company after only 2 to 3 weeks?

If I get selected by the MNC, what is the best way to resign from my current company during probation?

I would really appreciate advice from HR people or anyone who has been in a similar situation in India.
