In most cases it's better to take it and leave than to use the offer as leverage.

Why did you explore new opportunities? If you looked, why stay?

A 30% match in consulting in this environment is very unlikely unless you are a top 5% performer or at least have difficult-to-replace skills or clearance. Most people are not that special. Just leave if you want the money.

Then possibly—ours is doing well too but kpmg is still having firm wide issues. I wouldn’t be able to get that matched when my peers can’t even get merit increases.

You typically only get to do this once at a firm, so be sure this is the time you want to play the card. And make sure you’d like to go to the competitor, in case the company calls your bluff and says leave.

Just leave; everyone knows the counter is risky even in a good market. You can always boomerang back if you decide it’s not good once you get there

Seeing as how you work for BAH if you're technically oriented I'd say it's more likely BAH will match and even more so if you have a TS. If you are not I'd take the offer.

Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.

2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri

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.
