Been approached by Deloitte. Have option of interviewing for 'Strategy & Analytics' practice or 'IT M&A' practice.

Which is better?

Currently at EY - Consulting (Manager) but been working with EY-P for last 2 years and have M&A background. (Internal transfer no option)

S&A practice imo - IT M&A is a lot of PMO from what I’ve heard

What level? Sounds like it may be a lateral move

Manager... hoping to get promoted to SM this year. If doesn't, yes, it'd be a later move.

If you wanna grow crazy fast, come to M&A. M&A IT for Deloitte is empty right now and you can negotiate hard and they’ll pay you. And you can grow lightning speed

Hey D2, got approached by recruiter recently as well. What would be reasonable pay for a manager with 7 YOE? Thanks!

S&A is sexier - but which part of S&A? M&A is fundamentally different. Yes, there is the operational, IT and commercial due diligence part but we make our money with long term execution of integrations/divestitures, which sure is PMO heavy and intense but pays a lot and is a great place for career progression. Different roles tbh.

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good? A company along those lines.
