Deloitte

Money is competitive, but that's it. Everything else sucks.

During hiring, I talked to at least 8 different people to get the contract organized. I had to constantly harass them to get the contract ready for me to sign. I actually started working with the client a few days before the contract was signed and ready to go.

The computer from them didn't arrive until I had started working for the client for about 2 weeks. I just used my personal one to start and got yelled at about it later.

The most senior dev manager I talked to at Deloitte quit a month after I'd started. Over 6 months, dev managers from Deloitte would quit on average every 3 months or so.

Other devs from Deloitte I worked with were pretty low quality. No one wrote unit tests in general. No one did code reviews. One developer had been working with React for years but didn't know how to write a hook. Devs do 1 commit a day with 2 lines and call it a day. Very little work was done. Bugs go into MRs all the time, and no one cares.

The majority of the job is something breaks, people yell at each other to fix it, no tickets are issued, and I have to shoot into the dark to figure most things out. No one else from Deloitte can help.

Then, a reorganization happened at the client, and the project was dissolved. I was told by Deloitte that I'm senior, they love and need good devs, and please stay; they'll find something else with the client. Two weeks later, there was no new work. Actually, the team was dissolved too, and I was immediately let go. Meanwhile, devs with no skill who were fired from my previous team continued to work with Deloitte and the client on new teams they somehow managed to slime into. Talented devs here were just cast off with no review. Emails wondering what is going on go unanswered.

Just a total gong show. One of the worst places I've worked.
