Career advice! Tech strategy at consultant level at Deloitte or tech strategy at a consultant at Accenture? The comp is pretty similar but I wouldn’t see a bonus or promotion cycle at Deloitte until 2022 and would see one at Accenture later this year

Hi! I’m at Accenture now, and am actually coming to EY next month. I think we could benefit from chatting/swapping stories

Y’all are gonna convince each other to stay at y’all’s own companies 😂

I chose Accenture over Deloitte when faced with this same decision (competing offers for tech strategy) some years back. The two key factors for me were better WLB and better culture / people.
Super happy with my decision in retrospect. In particular, most of the folks here seem like genuinely good people that actually care about you and have a life outside of work, which to me is one of the most important factors for happiness at work.
I might be biased, but I also happen to think this is one specific area where our capabilities are simply better than Deloitte's.

Depends what you want. IMO (I’ve worked at both) 1.consultant at Accenture is slightly a higher level than consultant at Deloitte due to additional pre-manager band at Deloitte 2. Accenture has much better training 3. I personally prefer Deloitte culture / more autonomy / less hierarchical

Hi all,
I'm graduating this fall with a B.A. in political science. I take the LSAT Nov. 12th and have a mentor helping me to apply to law school for the Fall 2022 cycle. If it matters my GPA is a 3.5 (possibly 3.6). I'm quickly realizing that I need a job in the meantime (starting January). I'm based in Boston and New York but if the position is lucrative enough I'm willing to relocate. Any high paying but temporary roles that anyone would reccomend?

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either.

So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
