PwC A recruiter from PWC reached out to me to ask if I’d consider a different office the one I applied to, since it’s full. It would be Boston, Hartford, Chicago, Minneapolis, Little Rock, Denver, San Francisco or San Jose. MSA candidate. Is there a fully remote option? Do you have to be in the office all the time? Is the compensation high at PWC? Is there a possible moving expenses? Any insight or advice would help me make a decision. Thank you!
I am a graduating student who just got offered 65k for a solution analyst role at Deloitte USDC (Data Engineering Focus). From reading previous posts it seems to be a lot of negative thoughts surrounding the USDC, but straight out of college is this a good opportunity?
I'm looking to gain as much experience as possible out of college in an IT role and wondering what exit opportunities may be in place a year or two down the road if there is little/slow progression.
Any Advice?

RFA is a huge practice and all of those things will vary widely based on team. No information I could give you on those things would be useful because you can have one team in an office working 75 hour weeks traveling 4 days a week 50 weeks a year, and another team in the same office working 40 hours a week remote. And for salary, the range for a new hire could be anywhere from 55k-100k depending on skillset and COL.
My best advice is to not join RFA unless you are SURE you know what type of work you will be doing and you are sure that’s what you want to be doing. Advisory at deloitte is a second class citizen to consulting, and it’s very very difficult to move to consulting if you don’t like the work in advisory.
Most of rfa is just IT Audit, and I would not recommend going into IT audit (search around on fishbowl, it’s a universally hated career). There are other areas that are not IT audit though. For example, I worked in ESG reporting advisory for about a year, and it was more consulting type work but I was still paid literally half of what I am paid now in consulting.
The big difference between consulting and advisory is advisory helps clients avoid bad things (cyber breaches, misstated financials due to system design, violating new disclosure laws, etc.) and consulting helps a company work towards good things (growth strategy, ERP implementation, workforce transformation, etc.)
