Hi all! So I have been offered a position at KPMG. I am currently at a smaller firm (not Big 4, not MBB) and can’t decide if I should take the KPMG role. It comes with a pay increase and similar to what I do now (implementations) but with Workday. What advice do you guys have??

You should make sure they aren’t laying off people in that area you’re going in. And that there is billlable work already lined up for you

Take the role, it has more money and it’s step up from what firm you are in. Do not listen to others, you are not going to be laid off if they are hiring. KPMG doesn’t typically do this, and is being done due to COVID. Take the money and run!

Lol we know you are not at another big 4 or MBB 😂

Take the offer, sounds great.

Touché

$135k base is a good offer for only 1.5 years of Workday experience. I wouldn't push that. If you want more, you will also have more responsibility and if you can't back it up you will be cut very quickly. Better to keep the job and demonstrate your worth rather than over ask and under deliver.

Workday is hot and very few people are getting laid off from Workday roles unless they are under performers. So it is a good field to be in, especially FIN.

Do you have Workday experience already or other technologies? What’s the salary? Can tell you if it’s a good offer

Thank you! Very helpful.

135k for 4 yoe is great. Is this at a tier 1 city and do you have a masters?

Relocated from tier 1 during covid but no longer tier 1. No masters (yet).

Coming from a Workday SA in SC&O, welcome! We have a ton of great projects. Big recommendation if you have an interest in an industry, pick one and specialize. It will allow you to shine brighter at such a large firm.

Thanks! Healthcare specialization already and hoping to stay in the healthcare industry.

Should I specialize in Blockchain or AI? I’m a freshman in a CS degree and I can’t decide. My main argument to choose blockchain is the easy entry with little experience and high salary, I plan on growing my skills during the bear market and get a job once the market recovers. Regarding AI, I find this field fascinating but I feel like it requires a lot of experience, degrees and diplomas.
