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?
