Hey fishes -

considering an offer at Publicis Sapient Management Consulting/Tech Consulting from
Accenture (SM level). Boston based.

Benefit: good pay bump, nice nimbler company that does cool work

Cons: from the interview I have had, WLB seems horrific (80-90 hours a week) and I spoke with only men in leadership position (male here).

Thoughts?

Publicis Sapient is a pretty big org, but I agree that there are a lot of men represented in the MC practice. The practice is relatively new, mostly made up of ex MBB consultants.
You will likely be working with people from other Publicis agencies, and there is a lot of enthnic and gender diversity on our teams.

PS1 - how’s WLB? Also curious about compensation @ the M level, any insights you can share? Thanks in advance!

Lot of men in leadership period at PS. They are slowly/trying to improve their numbers, cultural change is never easy.

Newer practice, seem to recruit MCs who have nothing to prove and coast or really scrappy ones trying to make up for lost time (likely overlooked at the trad consulting firms from where they came).

More interesting work than reg MC work for sure. Expectation is that you will work hard for the $$ as the pay (far) exceeds many of other roles at the agency.

Similar position. Looking at potential offer at Publicis Sapient coming from Big 4 Advisory. Don't know much about Publicis and position is still in works. Does PS offer Partnerships like Big 4? How does it stack up to B4 or MBB? People, Pay? Worth a change in trying something new?

Also, do interviewers still appreciate a hand written thank you for the interview?

Hi. I would appreciate any advice on this. I have been working in TCS for 3 years in Support domain. I have completed my PGP in Data Science and Business Analytics. I have been trying to get placed in Accenture. I applied last November as a referral to Accenture. However, my resume was rejected. I thought it was because I was not serving notice period and still studying my PGP. However, I have completed my degree now and am looking to switch over. (In comments) Accenture Accenture India

Made a career pivot to another agency. During the interview we talked about how it may start as initially a "step backwards" (pay/benefits) but has potential for more long term growth. First day was yesterday. Had no communication about when or where to show up, sat in an empty office for about half an hour before a couple people finally showed. No phone call or email. Sent an email to the founder, no response. I could easily get my old job back if wanted.

What would you do in this situation?
