Currently work for Deloitte as a 1st year Consultant and was offered a Consultant level role at Accenture Interactive in Digital Transformation Strategy with a starting salary 20% higher than what I'm currently making. I have been working for Deloitte for over 2.5 years and started as an Analyst out of undergrad. I know I don't want to be in consulting in the long term, but is it worth taking the offer to make more money in the short term, or reject it and keep looking for a job I really want?

This is essentially a promotion, and for more money.

Accenture and Deloitte are the two clear Digital leaders, take it, and look to exit after you potentially make manager in 2-3 years at Accenture.

92 to roughly 120 if my math is right?

Yep- different situation because of partner politics. Putting in my two weeks on Monday.

The base increase is huge because you can anchor future negotiations from there, and fund grad school without having an anchor to go back to Deloitte.
