Can someone help me? [CANADA]

I got an offer for Deloitte as a new consultant.
I applied for EY and PwC for business transformation and management consulting respectively.

My offer for Deloitte expires soon. I emailed both firms on yesterday politely asking if there's an update.
The thing is I'm more attracted to PwC/EY lines i applied to.

Has anyone heard back from these firms? I don't want to burn any bridges w/ Deloitte by accepting and then decline if a better off comes along.

You can accept and decline later and typically doesn’t effect if you do. I’ve accepted multiple jobs and then declined waiting on other offers and the ones I’ve declined I’ve been offered to still come back if things don’t work out.

I don't want them to be upset with me when I withdraw - IF I do. I've heard multiple people on reddit say its not a good practice.
Also I'm just a new grad hire, not like they NEED me or anything. I'm pretty expendable so they might think blacklisting me is no big deal.


*also the spelling/ grammar errors in my post are not indicative of my intelligence but moreso my anxiety.

I would accept and then decline later, if a better job comes through, with a polite message that a better opportunity arose for your career
People do it all the time at B4, it's no big deal

Hi All,
I am feeling lost in job. So I’ve applied for Accounts payable they offered 40k. I said why not to gain some experience. I didn’t even bother negotiating which I regret.
Fast forward I noticed that I was eventually handed everyone’s workload (AR & imports & duty and check coworker work + AP) Spoke to them about pay increase based on workload. So they raised it to 55k.. but I still feel underpaid based on the amt of work I do. I don’t know what my title or what to put on resume..
