Hey peeps, looking for ur advise. Getting offered an SM role outside big 4 with a firm working with mid size businesses. I have a great relationship with the Partner, plus also know the head of consulting in the new firm (overall good impression). They want me to build a new practice, and success in that could pave the way for the partnership. The compensation is also good and won’t get the same even if i get promoted in my current firm. What questions i should ask to qualify the opportunity?

I’d get some more metrics about the new practice to align expectations. How immediate are results needed and expected and what does success look like?

The comp and position sound great, but I’d want to know that the position is stable and you won’t get cut.

Thanks Consultant 1. This is definitely top of mind, though trying to figure out a polite way to ask this without giving the impression that i’m afraid of building a new business

Building a practice is a lot of work. Expect 60+ hours a week. Also, firms wont support you from $$ perspective and would like you to be creative, bring in business almost immediately. Think wisely.

Thanks Accenture 1. It’s definitely a big decision. Though, the partner is also heavily invested in making this a success (read relationship / support) and no matter what i’m thinking this could be a great experience / story.

Hello guys,

Please help.

Recently, a month back I made a switch to a product based company/startup. For a month, I was getting to know their one of the product having tech stack as Java & Aws. Now after a month, I am being put in a new product completely based on golang & temporal.

My total exp is 3.8 years, since I have already spent 3.8 of my life in Java stack, would that be good for me if I make a switch to some other language or tech stack? I see, there are very few position for go.

I do like the company that gave me an offer but their base pay was 80k and they went up to 85k. Is asking for them to match the 90k too much? The position is associate systems engineer.
