When accounting goes unaccounted for
One GC reader is not impressed by this expression of love today:
"At Deloitte, this is what the people in the Central region received today as their Valentines Day."
We are still waiting for a copy of the "bizarre email that intersects Valentines Day and audit quality" we hear was sent out along with these questionable treats. Ahem.
Wouldn't conversation hearts have been more effective?
From the mailbag:
Heard this from a Director in the firm: Deloitte layoffs coming. Lists are made…cuts coming soon. Said a lot of it has to do with thinning out the ranks (too many people jumping ship because their level is top heavy and promotion nowhere in sight) as well as letting go underperformers.
As you probably noticed, 2011 hasn’t had much in the way of layoff news with the exception of some support staff that were cut at McGladrey, Grant Thornton, and KPMG. That said, this seems like an opportune time to kick a few people to the curb. If you wait until November, well, that just looks bad.
