How much would it take for you to leave for *swallows* guidehouse? They’re offering me a $30k bump and a $20k signing bonus and an early promotion (on deck now). Would I be pouring water on my career?

I don’t think so, but you need to watch out. I feel like they’re trying to eventually IPO or resell the firm in a few years... which means some restructures on the way there

thanks M1... future is bright!

I honestly would steer clear for at least a year post integration like my fellow Navigant colleague mentioned below. No questions or forward direction inquiries are being answered right now and combining the whale of Navigant with barely a year post divergence Guidehouse is likely to be a disaster.

@M1, if I didnt have contacts at other veritas portfolio companies, and if I didnt have experience in PE backed mergers your statement would be true.

there will be re org, ops and support staff reduction, salary band normalization (nci will come down, guidehouse will go up in the form of reduced or differently aligned increase and bonus structures), other comp will meaningfully change to cut costs, and ute targets and sales pressures will go way up.
