So I’m a second year consultant. Like most, I was disappointed with compensation this year and am pretty bearish on my future earning potential here. I’m currently interviewing with a big tech company (not FAANG but close) for a position with substantially higher pay as a business analyst. I really wanted to stay til SC/M but the money is too good to pass up. I guess my question is: are there any major downsides to exiting to industry “too early?” Has anyone done it and regretted it?

I interviewed with Deloitte for a SC role back in April and received a verbal offer since there was a hiring freeze.

I would much rather work at Deloitte but would it be silly to wait around with nothing but a verbal offer in my pocket? Currently employed.
