Are the exit ops at Deloitte vs. Slalom a big enough difference to forgo a 30% comp increase?

Yes, Slalom is a joke and has no real reputation other than people use them when they can’t actually afford consulting services.

Jesus, who hurt you? Also my bill rate is higher now than it was at a big 4 lol.

Nope.

Nope. Exit opps are pretty comparable in general.

As a generalized maxim, any sort of recognizable brand name (with the exception of the very clear leaders in a given field such as MBB for strat), provided you're in an area that company is known for, is going to be pretty comparable. In Slalom's case, their tech focused work is just as well received in industry as Deloitte's, as an example. If you're talking the pure strat side, on the other hand, D is better.

With the exception of the aforementioned brand outliers, the content of your resume matters substantially more than the branding.

Got it, my moves are typically primary for comp. So this increase aligns with my 2 year exit plan if I were to stay at D hence why I’m like I can exit now and be 2 years ahead and spend that time at Slalom then assess if I want to stay or exit in 2-3 years.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
