Anyone know if Deloitte, Accenture, EY etc pay a housing allowance? I’m about to move to the UAE as a Senior Consultant but want to know what kind of package/benefits to expect. Thanks!

If it’s anything like PwC, then yes they will do, however your base salary will likely be lower. For example, my base salary + allowances = total salary I could expect in London. It’s also annoying because your bonus is a multiplier of your base, not your base + allowance.

No it’s not. It’s additional money

Like others have mentioned, yes but it's just a different line item on your monthly payslip, matters only as the multiplier for your bonus is the "base pay" line item.

However, firm X’s offer validity about to run out.

(3) Play straight, decline X and hope Y converts (4) any other creative ideas ...???
