I accepted an offer at Deloitte and start in three weeks. I am also in processes at another Big 4 and MBB. If I get substantial better offers from them, would it be crazy to leave D after a couple months? Start dates for other potential offers are Jan 3.

I would def take an MBB offer if presented. Just don’t spend all of the signing bonus.

I would just take the 2 months off if you’re able 😊

Definitely not crazy to leave D after a few months for MBB. In fact, you’d be crazy not to. Leaving might be a little awkward with coworkers but they’ll understand it given the firms involved.

For another big 4 it’s a different story. If the offer is significantly higher for the same role then it makes sense. Maybe see if D can match it? Otherwise, not much reason to burn a bridge.

I wouldn’t go two months without pay, but that’s just me.

Agree with this. Don’t go without the pay. Take MBB no hesitation if offered. Take other B4 only if offer significantly better & Deloitte doesn’t match.

Call your recruiter and ask if you can push start date if you can go a few months without pay.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks
