Currently at 3-4 YoE at a midsize, lower tier consulting firm as a SC focused in healthcare. I have two job offers with roughly the same TC at other more well known consulting firms. The position at Company A is focused within healthcare and aligns with my experience. Company B is more strategy and advisory focused and isn’t industry specific. Any advice on making the best choice? I’m leaning toward Company B mainly due to the fact that it isn’t industry specific and better WLB

Hey Bowl,
I work for a late stage(ipo) start up, earlier this year we were acquired & since then they got rid of our yearly bonuses and gave us an ESOP grant.
2 RIFs later we are almost bare bones. Since we are coming up on our usual yearly evaluations many of us assumed (with multiple conversation from our managers) that pay raises and promotions were due.
In a recent All hands we found out that this year there will be no pay raises nor promotions based off merit. Is it time to jump ship?

But I don’t think I couldn’t keep up already for a daily grind. The reason why I did not pursue it earlier in my career is that I am not from a target school and I do not have an MBA. lol thoughts?
