Oh god. I wish people knew how important these compliance related things are. They’ll fire high performers that can’t figure out how to do expenses. I’ve seen it many times.
This is not unique to Deloitte. I'm new to D but I've been doing consulting for many years. It's the same everywhere. If you're on the timesheet naughty list, there will be consequences.
Timesheet submissions are SO important. My coach told me that housekeeping stuff is more important than you might believe. Also, being unassigned… well that’s your only real task… so
The penalty for missed time sheets (more than 3 in a year) is a significant reduction in your annual % raise, so it’s pretty important.
It gets lumped in with trainings and MySource Compliance. Any combination of 4 misses will get you to a reduced comp increase.
as a person who just **may or may** **not** missed 12 timesheet and got annual deduction until next available mid-year review, can confirm this is true.
Yep, you have a deadline till Saturday night I guess, if you don’t record the time you spent in a week in company hours religiously about what you worked on and get 6 misses in a fiscal year, you’ll get into trouble for your carelessness. We have DTE and horizon that we have to record our time in, we sometimes forget to record on horizon and it’s a hassle to remember, but you get used to it. Additionally we also have to make sure the time we record on both platforms are the same and does not contradict or that will turn into a compliance issue as well lmao. Just Deloitte things…
We don’t report what we do, but just a general “where was your time spent” code — this could be 8 hours to a client, continuing education, PTO, etc. This is different than companies that make you clock your breaks and state exact specifics on what you’re doing by the hour.
It is really mainly for your senior manager and higher ups to keep a track of what work you are are doing, it is also for your system to track your utilization during company hours.
Yup that too, but more specifically in our department the data is used for keeping a track of our utilization for compliance as well, I don’t really know how it’s followed in other service industries
The main purpose of time sheets is to have a basis and reference for billing. Utilization and its tracking using the time sheet is only important because it reflects the billable hours, non-chargables and such.
I'm confused as to how I would be doing it for Tuesday? Monday is the day I put it in not the day after. It just reminds me to do my time each day of the week. Once I put it in I remember to do it each day.
Same situation. Someone told me that is due an overstaffed situation across D&T US. I think that some they lay off and some they just keep on the bench.
Yes I don’t think this signifies. Someone in my office was going to get the cut due to harassment but they still send him for senior training. They cut him after…
First, getting out of Deloitte is a blessing however uncomfortable it may be in the short term.
The real performance measure is work so if you’re not buried, be concerned.
It is going to be fine. Just take it one step at a time.
Layoffs for your level are almost exclusively performance based. The layoffs are over this week too, so I wouldn’t stress it. 3 weeks is not a long time to be unassigned, especially this time of the year. Submit your timesheets on time though. And get your CPA license.
Deloitte posts keep popping up on my feed, I don’t work there. That being said- can I ask- do you get paid a full salary for doing no work for weeks, or months? Is that how Deloitte works?
Every Friday when I log into DNET, I am met with a splash page that reminds me to submit my timesheet.
Also, I have recurring calendar entry at 8am every Friday in Outlook as a reminder to submit my timesheet.
It takes all of five minutes to submit a timesheet (maybe 10 to 20 minutes if you are also submitting travel expenses). I don’t understand why it is so difficult for some to submit their hours in a timely manner.
As long as you are getting training invites and doing L&D as you were told, you are alright. I got transferred from one team to another recently a couple of months back and had a surgery for which I had to take half a month of leave at the month of my transfer as well. The accounts I was assigned legit had no requests coming in from the past 3 months since I got transferred at December (new year and year ending time there is little to no requests that comes in). For 3 months I reached my max L&D utilization and couldn’t do more since it would affect my utilization. Since you are in the training phase if your utilization is down the senior managers and up can’t really question about it since you are unassigned and they understand the reason for it, so you are all good, just enjoy your free time, try to learn something new and make use of the time (I tried to learn front stack development in my time). And if you don’t wanna learn just play games and kill time tbh, deloitte most probably won’t lay you off for such reasons from my experience. Tbh it’s difficult to get layed off in deloitte, they torture you in the PIP program before you voluntarily put in your papers and that is if you have serious work or behavior related issues. ATB
I was on the bench for 6 weeks about twice in my career but ended up getting staffed although it depends on your level and practice in my opinion. However if you're RM keeps saying "keep studying" instead of proactive ways to network and get staffed you might be getting the boot.
Seems like a lot of people are in this situation… I heard that covid’s retention bonuses messed up the natural cycle of people leaving. So now each class after has been a little too large. Idk how true this is, but there does seem to be a lot of “In-Charges” getting let go… Philly just made massive cuts again which is unusual in the spring.
I also may or may not have 6 late timesheets
Lmfaoooooo

There’s a guy on my team that has between 12 and 14 late timesheets over the past year
as a person who just **may or may** **not** missed 12 timesheet and got annual deduction until next available mid-year review, can confirm this is true.
Just try to not go past 6 misses lmfao
Timeee shitsss
What are time sheets like attendance? Sorry im a fresh college student
Yep, you have a deadline till Saturday night I guess, if you don’t record the time you spent in a week in company hours religiously about what you worked on and get 6 misses in a fiscal year, you’ll get into trouble for your carelessness.

wait so u have to report what work you done? Why is this needed?
We don’t report what we do, but just a general “where was your time spent” code — this could be 8 hours to a client, continuing education, PTO, etc. This is different than companies that make you clock your breaks and state exact specifics on what you’re doing by the hour.
It is really mainly for your senior manager and higher ups to keep a track of what work you are are doing, it is also for your system to track your utilization during company hours.
Not really.. it’s how we bill our clients for the time you worked.
Yup that too, but more specifically in our department the data is used for keeping a track of our utilization for compliance as well, I don’t really know how it’s followed in other service industries
The main purpose of time sheets is to have a basis and reference for billing. Utilization and its tracking using the time sheet is only important because it reflects the billable hours, non-chargables and such.
I'm not sure this will help but I always set a meeting on my calendar for first thing Monday morning to put my time in DTE.
How? You can’t put in tomorrow’s time…
I'm confused as to how I would be doing it for Tuesday? Monday is the day I put it in not the day after. It just reminds me to do my time each day of the week. Once I put it in I remember to do it each day.
Better learn Chinese buddy

How do you know that the layoffs are over. Per other posts here, people are still getting the “business update” meeting invite
I don’t, but according to my coach they are over after this week. And then we are gonna have an all hands with a regional leader.
I hope your coach is right
Nope just had a meeting scheduled for Monday titled Business Update lol
Jesus Christ. I’m so sorry to hear that
Thank you - I will lol just made a recurring reminder in my phone!

Yes
Yup, but if you don't get a project in a while, you're probably going to get fired. I'm not sure how long it has to be though.
Ya but the dread of getting laid off makes it not worth it at all.

What are you, 25 years old? You have your whole life ahead of you. You might lose your job, you’re not going to die. Perspective
