EY or Slalom? Got an offer from both firms (tech advisory) and I’m confused on which one to accept. EY obviously has a bigger market presence but I’ve heard the culture and wlb is better at Slalom?

Slalom. Better WLB. My brother works there, I’m at EY. He wraps up early and I work until 10-11 most nights

Highly recommend EY. I work closely with Tech folks at EY and have worked with Slalom folks at a client engagement. Can confirm the quality of life, future exit opps and the type of work is better at EY.
Just my two cents.

From everything I've heard anecdotally, Slalom *can* do some really cutting edge work in the tech space and in that particular niche *can* do more interesting stuff than B4. I have no experience with the Boston office or what they do there, though.

Tech advisory is broad. What exactly in tech advisory? Could be cyber security, data analytics etc.

Also. Give other parameters like money offered.

But. Anyway; can give you the perspective from someone who’s been in tech consulting with EY for 2.5 years (Data & Analytics). Overall, learnt a lot over the past 2.5 years. Already have a job offer in hand for a really good exit. Also, keep getting 2-3 daily inmails from recruiters(top firms), so the exit opportunities are good.
