The Firm Spy has been very critical of Deloitte in recent months. We thought that the massive growth in partnership profits against the backdrop of rumours of cutbacks, a pay freeze and continued claims that workers have been ‘managed out‘ warranted our attention.
Nevertheless, before immediately reporting the following incredible rumour, we took pause and thought it prudent to ask the anonymous source for more information. More information was forthcoming from the same source.
Earlier in the week, the anonymous tipster revealed:
an undisclosed number of staff were recently sacked for organising drug deals on Deloitte’s premises.
got any sniff?
We then asked the source for more information and received the following (edited) response last night:
Monday’s voicemail [said]… that Deloitte communication equipment was used for the purposes of organising the [drug] deal, and from all accounts it took place on Deloitte premises. I can’t remember if … a few or two [employees were sacked], but I don’t think it was more than 3 …This has all been followed up by a new drug and alcohol policy distributed throughout the firm from the partnership this week.
Given that this rumour was sent from an anonymous spy, we cannot confirm the veracity of it. We invite a clarification from other sources or Deloitte’s PR team.
