Deloitte, PricewaterhouseCoopers, KPMG and Ernst & Young. The work environment in these
companies is said to be very different from other organisations as well as there is a difference in work
environment of these four companies.

present study is to analyse the impact of work environment on employee satisfaction in Deloitte.
