I recently got a verbal offer from KPMG strategy. Is that more prestigious than like, most other firms? Like, I know MBB is done with recruiting; I feel like below MBB for name recognition is the Big 4 and other firms aren’t as reputable. I’m trying to decide whether or not I should interview and apply to other firms or just take this one (assuming a written offer ever comes along). Also, I prioritize work culture and exit opportunities over salary, but don’t want to be paid below poverty line.
What’s the culture like at FTI Consulting?

Doable. But it sounds like a lot. If you overbook or get overwhelmed, it'll be your reputation on the line. Just make sure you're realistically able to carry all of that at once!
You are going to be exhausted by the end. Are you sure you want to take all of that on at the same time?
Ummmm so I do do something like this, it SUCKS. It's a lot of effort and time, so basically, I work most weekends. I think it'll be tough to balance meetings out - that's where I struggle the most. I have to cancel on my second job stuff a bit more bc of that, but it's not great and reflects pretty poorly so I'm working out how to make that better
If they are in similar time zones and meeting intensive, I don’t know how you balance a load.
The question is why are you doing this? Are you looking for more experience or do you need more money? You don’t have to put them both on your résumé, but earlier in your career particularly, your job is to build up your reputation and networks, so be careful.
Thanks everyone for the insight! I really appreciate it.
I worked two full time jobs while getting my masters. You can definately do it but like everyone above said, its going to be grueling. Just be sure to take care of yourself!
I bet that it's going to be a difficult road ahead, but if you work hard at it and prepare for each role with the same amount of time and energy exerted then it's going to be easier. Some things get easier as we get along. So you can do this!
