Got an offer from Amazon Web Services (internal business insights role). The TC is a little less that what I make now at ACN. I’ve been at ACN for ~1.4yrs now and have enjoyed it for the most part. The work is meh. I will say I’m not looking forward to travel coming back. At AWS, I’d be doing similar work but also get to do some other stuff I’d like and no travel. I’m just worried about the WLB and PIP culture I read about. Being that WLB is top priority, does jump make sense?

If WLB is a priority and you’re happy to take a lower TC, you could look into industry roles rather than Amazon.

I previously worked at Amazon and would describe it as a great place to work if you are hungry for a promotion. If you are looking to stay at the same level and enjoy some semblance of WLB I would not recommend.

Amazon is the one tech company Ive heard universally bad things about in terms of WLB. So IMO probably not. If you stick it our in ACN a bit longer hopefully something else will pop up!

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
