2nd year manager at KPMG strategy current at $205k base (w/ top 10 MBA & 7 yoe). Offered $215k base 10% bonus for a Transformation Director position with a PE backed fintech. WLB is fantastic. Company positioned to go public in 1-2 years or be sold. Should I wait to see if I make director this year at KPMG or jump now? (I have 2 kids under 4 and wife is big law attorney so WLB is key)

I feel like you’re answering this for yourself with WLB being key. Sounds like a risk worth taking. You can always go back to KPMG or other consulting firms if things don’t work out. What’s the equity stake with them maybe going public soon?

Agreed ey1. You really have listed no reason to stay so just go. Big4 big w boomerangs so I wouldn’t be surprised if they wanted to take you back soon if this gig doesn’t play out the want you expect
