Full remote work is possible without any pressure to come to the office, though the option is there.

Cons: While Deloitte promotes a culture where career advancement seems to be based on individual merit, in practice, promotions depend heavily on available opportunities and the projects you're assigned to.
There's a strong emphasis on firm contribution and project demand. Your chances of promotion often depend on whether a project is willing to support your rate at the next level.
As a result, promotions can be harder to achieve than they may initially appear.
