I came over from Deloitte and am glad I made the switch. Got a nice bump and much better WLB. Like with anywhere, much of your experience will depend on your team. Don’t let others scare you away. If you don’t like it, just boomerang back for a second salary bump.

Benefits are nothing special, but as others say the culture and WLB is team dependent.

In my time I’ve seen managers and directors actively fight to keep their teams staffed at 40 hours / week for billable work when someone tried to pile on more. Nearly everyone I’ve worked with has been smart and easy to get along with. My manager genuinely seems like they want me to be happy with my projects to stay long term.

That is possible, but we have a huge portfolio of internal control/audit readiness/A123 support that doesn't fit. I've always thought IBM would be a potential buyer.

Honestly, its not a bad firm, and I enjoyed my projects, wlb, and teams. Totally possible to negotiate great pay coming in. The Centers of Excellence and firm RD are not as great as Deloitte’s but apart from that, its the same bread butter consulting. You already have the Deloitte brand so if you can come in at a higher title and pay, I think thats a fine move.

I do think you’ll get better/more specific answers if you specify what part of the firm you’d be joining.

No equity at Guidehouse. Factor that in your decision making process.

AWS vs Cloudflare BDR roles

AWS lowballed but I negotiated to match Cloudflare. Cloudflare offers more equity but AWS has a higher base.

I love Cloudflare. The people are great but it’s an engineering culture and the sales team isn’t as well shaped up and I can’t go for a promotion until at least 18 months of tenure. I am an investor in the company and think of them super highly. I’ve already got half a years SDR experience and AWS promotes quicker.

AWS has prestige but is it worth it?
