Congrats! I’d definitely take GT. Negotiate that sign on bonus.
Not sure why Slalom would give you Consultant role based on your YOE.
What city are you in (if you don’t mind sharing)?

As a little background I have 14yoe total in consulting, a masters, Scrum Master & SPC certs.

Leaning toward either GT or Slalom at this point.

I did push back with Slalom in regards to title, I feel coming in at consultant is a little low for my yoe. They wouldn’t budge and said I could make my case to move up to senior consultant in September. However that seems pretty ambitious and really dependent on the contract i get placed on.
