Is the M&A department at Deloitte comparable to other Ibank M&A depatments in terms of compensation, hours, things of that nature?

Deloitte isn't an i-bank...

I hope this isn't because you were offered a job or interview there.

This is why I'm asking. And if it's not what is the difference between the two?

The Big 4 do not limit themselves to just accounting--or at least they did not until last year. All of them have/had consulting, M&A and securitization services (in addition to many others that I can't think of). SarbOx forced them to restructure a bit in order to preserve indepence from their auditing clients and some of the Big 4 have sold off portions of these service lines.

so who would be the client in need of M&A consulting from the big 4??
