Big consulting company is looking to put together a team of SAP consultants and develop their SAP consulting practice. Would you join a company with no established reputation in delivering SAP projects and help them grow or would you rather go for a big 4?

It all depends on the company’s size and reputation. B4 firms have a pretty good rep, so if there is one that didn’t previously have an SAP practice (perhaps due to Independence concerns), I would be OK since they’d be able to whether the storm. Similarly, I would be OK with a firm like GT or Slalom since they are large enough and diverse enough. But outside of those 2 (and Accenture), I would shy away from it. Could be fun, though, and presents a nice upside, but also risky given the anticipated recession.

It was just an example. You can replace SAP with any service or software system

If this firm is able to secure a proven leader from a reputable firm that would also make this more appealing. Though I imagine it’s hard to get a rockstar on day 1 to lead the practice

For enough money, and an opportunity at practice leadership, they could snag someone

Big consulting company that is not Big4? What is your role? Will you be leading their new SAP practice? If you are at consultant level, going to Big4 is a good choice. You will work with great people and learn a lot.

Realistically, making to Director is 2-3 years away and will require sacrificing time with my family that I am not prepared to give up.
