I would do the BTA role. It's more flexible

If you plan on jumping again in the next few years, I would go with PWC.

If you intend to stay put and foster a career, sounds like Deloitte is a better option.

Op are you an intern now?

Deloitte. If you were cyber at PwC and then wanted to switch to deloitte later you go to Advisory. BTA is a foot in the Consulting door

Bta

My partner got a City of Toronto offer. Salary band is 104-121k. HR asked for his expectations and he said 115k.

I’ve looked at everyone on the team with the same titles salary on the sunshine list and the lowest I see is 121k. I assume there is an OT component of some sort but also can’t confirm.
