PwC will be good experience but you’ll work a lot of hours. We are super understaffed right now. The manager role likely has a better WLB and I would think allows an exit to more senior opportunities.

You may want to consider salary/compensation growth within 5, 10 years. Likely a very big difference. PwC will open more doors in the future if you decide to go industry later. You will grow and gain exposure to more things in consulting and also be more challenged. If you care more about WLB now, go industry.

100% agree. I’ve been in both, and can tell you that your learnings in B4 are about 2-3x what you learn in industry. Also, at this stage in your career, your salary increases will be higher than industry, so build that base now. You will still have plenty of career time left to spend in industry.

You don’t want to work for SBD. Company culture is toxic. It’s a fairly old school company, management is old school. There’s no growth.

Having an Interview this week, and don't know how high I should set my salary expectations. I currently earn 24k/annum base + comission. Would it be unreasonable to say that I have 30k + comission atm? I think it also hardly depends on the location, I am currently working from Poand but would be working for a swiss company.
Currently have about 7months exp. and thoughts on this?
Appreciate the input

Capgemini I joined sometime back at D1 level , I do technical work most of time like coding, dev,testing etc.
I have worked a lot in my 14 years and still have required skills needed for the work. I don't have energy to slog any further. Moreover I get anxiety when I see junior level people doing same work as me and earning more or same.
I feel cannot sit longer hrs due to back issues and other health issues and family commitments.

Can I change to management side without risking my job .
