How risky is it to ask your client about applying for a job there? Sr client is hiring aggressively and has even hinted to my teammate that they would hire the person. However that teammate works very closely with Sr Client and I don’t (I have before but not since early summer).

Our clients company overall is also notorious for poaching our staff (at least 3 transition there every week). Has anyone ever tried it?

Sounds like at least 3 people a week try it

Best would be to do it during a 1:1. You can just say that you are looking into opportunities and wondered if there were any.

If you don't have 1:1 i guess you can email...

I'd be surprised.

Then they can hire you back with a raise ahah

Are you in a Non-Compete? That would likely be a no-go.

Yep ZS..I don’t really care I would never work for this client and as soon as I can get away from them I will.

Not to be mean but if they wanted you, wouldn't they have already asked if they are constantly poaching people?

I think you should wait until your colleague switches sides and then you can ask them to poach you.

Sounds like the client is building up a team in a particular area and in the meantime is using consultants to run the show / supplement.

Does anyone regret joining a boutique consulting firm? I signed with a startup out of college (spring 2020) whose founding partners were all partners/Sr leaders at a few T2s.

I’m just having second thoughts as exit opportunities aren’t as prevalent as I thought, the pay/benefits don’t match industry/risk of joint a startup, and I’m not getting the network of a Big4 or MBB

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
