How does Nous Group compare to Big 4 Consulting, especially at a grad/consultant level? I have experience working in the Big 4 (Tech consulting) but haven't really heard much about Nous (Strategy). Any insight including career progression, exit-ops would be appreciated.

Purpose driven management consulting firm. Strong in public sector, education, and sustainable development. Pay and career progression somewhere between big 4 and tier 1 & 2s. Great culture and work life balance.

They do lots of work in public sector and education. Fast progression if you’re a high performer. Exit ops are below big4 from what I’ve seen, I’ve only seen exit ops to other consulting firms.

Good quality work but brand name isn’t very strong in Industry outside the know so limits exit ops sadly.

Would not recommend Nous unless you're at the entry, or below mid level as a consultant.

EY 1 - why’s that?

Hi All
I have an offer from Deloitte USI worth 8 LPA + 10% Variable (position: Business Analyst).
My current company (Not a big4 / tier 1 company) has now offered 9 LPA to retain me.
What should I do? Shoul I stay here or join Deloitte and take the advantage of the big4 and tier 1 company tag? I'm very confused - could someone please answer me?
(My total work ex - 20 months)

Thanks
