Hi everyone! I am about to graduate from my masters program in public policy and am in need of advice for choosing a consulting gig for post-grad.

I have an offer from Deloitte's Government and Public Sector division and from Guidehouse's Financial Services division. Does anyone have any insight on what it's like to work at these companies? What opportunity might you recommend that I pursue?

I don't know much about Guidehouse, so I'd check Glassdoor to see if there are any reviews. Deloitte is solid. Good WLB, comp, etc.

Any and all advice appreciated.

Joining a big firm next week as fully remote lateral and flying out to home office for orientation. The schedule has me in office until 4:15. I’ve already been told I won’t have any actual work. Depending on how many people are there and how it feels, I was planning to stay an hour extra but should I hang around the office until later? First time visiting this city so it’d be great to take in some sights too (although that’s not a priority of course).
