How is work life balance at EY cybersecurity consulting? This question is coming from a person who never worked in consulting but has been always on the engineering and architecture side of technology. I have received an offer and salary offered is really good. Can someone please help in answering what the culture is like? Work life balance? Average PBB at senior? Is it worth it move for like 20% increase from your traditional 9-5 corporate environment?

What’s the offer?

Base close to 200k.

You won’t be working 9-5 that’s for sure. More like 45-55hrs/week on average with the occasional 60+, including weekend.

No, they are not technical for the most part. Mostly assessments and transformation projects (if technical it’s in an SMR capacity but the hands-on work is typically done by the client resources unless we have recently started doing those).Btw close to 200K is even more than most managers and SMs so..

All else equal, if you’re making ~$165K in a traditional 9-5 right now.. I would not move to consulting for $200k.

Also wait, $200K for a Senior? That’s way out of band. What city? How many years of experience do you have?
