Reviews
Day to day responsibilities vary from project to project. Currently, I am responsible for helping other streams e.g. Integration, Networking, Testing etc, get on board the AWS platform and help with troubleshooting any issues they face on the platform. Along with that I am also responsible for maintain consistency and security of the platform, as well as keep the documentation up to date with the current state of the platform.
My current role is to provide support on a project I am currently on and I am also helping my team create some learning decks.
My role and day-to-day responsibilities differ depending on the project I am working on. My most common duties are taking notes during meetings, scheduling meetings with stakeholders, creating presentation decks for final deliverables, testing cybersecurity controls of organisations, assisting with proposals and other business development activities.

Pros and cons of working at Deloitte Australia
Pros
The company provides a lot of training and learning resources, which are extremely valuable, especially for graduates.
Deloitte prides itself on flexibility, with employees able to work from home or from the office to suit their needs.
The culture is warm and welcoming. You are part of the team as soon as you walk through the door.
The exposure to large clients and proximity to partners opens opportunities for learning and development.
The Deloitte Flex program is really awesome and allows you to balance your work with your personal life easily.
Cons
While there is a lot of formal training, some grads feel that it doesn't always match the practical requirements of their role.
The pay is not always competitive compared to similar roles in other industries, and there are limited opportunities for bonuses.
Due to the hybrid working model, it can be difficult to connect with colleagues or build a strong team culture.
While there is a clear path for promotion, the process can sometimes feel slow or dependent on market conditions.
It can be stressful during the busy season.
