Hi, I received an offer from the EY SDC. Do you guys think I will gain a lot of value working at a service delivery center for the purpose of helping me get other jobs? The role is 50k salary and I could work for a smaller firm for 65k. However, I am not sure if I want to sacrifice the difference in pay to work for a bigger company and use that as a foot in the door to get a better paying role down the line. What do you guys think?

How small is the smaller from . Midsize market or ? In my opinion I think EY would provide more exposure to more clients in various industries , smaller/ midsize market firm may provide opportunity to have more hats within the organization .


It really depends on your choice , I would use the offer you have and try to negotiate to see if EY would match , or come close to it , the worst they could do say is no.

Yes the other firm is midsize market. It’s a registered investment advisor firm. Not too small but not nearly as big as EY. I for sure plan on asking for a pay increase.

You should gain some working experience first. If the smaller firm is stable and has a good management/structure, then you may start there. You also improve your skillset while you're there and move to a bigger firm if you are ready to take on new challenges and expand your opportunities.

I thought starting at a big firm opens more doors than starting at a small firm? I heard it’s better and more feasible to start out working for a big firm and then go into a small firm rather than starting at a small firm and then going to a big firm.

I was approached on LinkedIn for an early career recruiting role in DFW, TX. I don't have direct experience, but I have the university experience/connections from working in career services. This is the first time I've considered work outside of higher education. I said my salary expectations are minimum $90k and that didn't seem to be an issue. Am I asking too little, too much? How can I know I'm getting the best salary and not just settling at the low end of the range?

From what I’ve seen online (averaging 5 different sites, I am including Glassdoor but only the number they have listed as the base) I’m currently expecting about 85k base. Does this seem too high? Just looking for some opinions before I go in for my interview.
