Laid off from Deloitte.

Deloitte layoff history

Deloitte built a government practice with more than 15,000 US employees and $5.5 billion behind it, and in 2025 that concentration turned into the risk. DOGE data analyzed by Business Insider listed at least 127 Deloitte contracts cut or modified by early April, about $371.8 million and over 11% of the roughly $3.3 billion the firm bills federal agencies each year. On an April call, Deloitte Consulting's CEO told staff the Government and Public Services practice would part ways with a small percentage of its people and that the round would finish by the end of April. The firm confirmed it as modest personnel actions tied to moderating growth, its government clients' evolving needs, and low levels of voluntary attrition.

Those counts come from the government's own published list, and the list has been shaky. Fortune put it at 124 contracts worth more than $1.16 billion, with DOGE claiming $371.8 million saved, and reported that Bank of America found the savings overstated and that some listed contracts had been canceled before the term began or had ended on their own. Bloomberg Tax, counting professional services contracts only, found 63 canceled and worth $4 million against the $2.6 billion federal agencies spent with Deloitte in fiscal 2024, a year in which only Booz Allen Hamilton earned more from that work. Same pullback, three different numbers, depending on who counted and what they counted.

What Deloitte publishes about all this stays thin. The firm announced $70.5 billion in global revenue for the year ending 31 May 2025 and a workforce above 470,000, and put no number on the US jobs it cut. Its US management consulting business had grown by less than 1% in 2024, after 17.8% the year before that and 25.5% the year before that, so the engine had already slowed. There aren't any severance terms on record either. The fullest accounts of the April call quote the company on why it cut rather than on what it paid, and employees on that call told Business Insider that June bonuses would be paid as expected that year. Treat any severance formula you find on a negotiation site as unverified until a document backs it.

Our own tracker adds nothing here, and that absence is worth naming. None in our tracker, all time, across every state archive we collect, and none since the start of 2025, so the filing list that gives other companies a dated paper record gives you nothing to check for Deloitte. The federal rule requires 60 days' notice before a plant closing or mass layoff, and some states go further. With no filing to read, the weight falls on your own paperwork and on the Rapid Response team your state runs, which covers unemployment insurance questions, job search help, and information on health benefits and pensions.

One more thing shifted underneath the people still there. On 1 June 2026 Deloitte replaced the analyst, consultant and manager ladder across its US divisions, about 181,500 people, with titles naming a job family and sub family plus internal levels such as L45 and L55, and said day to day work and its compensation philosophy would stay the same. The firm has separately said it allocated over $3 billion to generative AI through fiscal 2030. If you left before that date, your paperwork carries the old titles. Hold on to the separation agreement, the final pay statement, and anything naming your practice and level, because those are the documents that carry the details you'll need to check severance and eligibility later, when the people who could have answered questions have moved on.

Reporting on previous Deloitte layoff rounds

• 2025 · Cuts across the Government and Public Services practice, announced on an April call where Deloitte Consulting's CEO put the round at a small percentage of the practice and said it would conclude by the end of April. The firm gave no headcount.

• 2023 · About 1,200 US roles, roughly 1.5% of the US workforce, in the consulting slowdown. Employee posts said risk and financial advisory would take a larger 3% reduction, reported as employee discussion rather than a company figure.

How Deloitte's layoffs compare to other companies

Only Booz Allen Hamilton earned more from federal professional services contracts in 2024, and Deloitte took more than twice as many contract cuts as any other consultancy once the reviews started. A practice carrying more than 15,000 US staff puts that exposure in one place.

What to do after being laid off from Deloitte

1. File for unemployment in the state where you worked. Benefits run from your filing date, and severance usually doesn't block you. Deloitte's biggest hubs: Virginia, New York, Texas. Somewhere else? Every state is here.
2. Apply for financial and hardship assistance. Unemployment supplements income, but food benefits, health coverage and utility help are often available as well. Here's some of what Deloitte's hub states run: Virginia, New York, Texas, and every other state is here.
3. Mind the health insurance window. Losing coverage opens a 60-day special enrollment period, and an ACA plan usually beats unsubsidized COBRA. Compare your options before the employer coverage lapses, and read how the COBRA clocks run if you are weighing it seriously.
4. Get your real runway number. Severance plus savings divided by reality. The calculator takes five minutes.
5. Know which clocks are already running. Severance review windows, COBRA election, visa grace periods, and 401(k) rollovers all run on federal deadlines that started at termination. All five deadlines are here.
