I am an experienced SAP Consultant and unfortunately was a part of recent lay off at my firm. Have been trying to pivot to Consulting or BSA roles based off Toronto/GTA through linkedin cold messaging. Looking for recommendations/tips to break into the space.
Thanks!

I have two offers, one from Am Law 100 firm and one from Am Law 200 firm. Am Law 200 firm is offering 40K more (otherwise the firms have same hours target and, based on discussions, similar culture). I’m trying to decide between the two based on long term career prospects, both offer opportunity for NEP (not sure how realistic it is at either). Also not sure of overall earning potential down the road. Is the 40K now worth it or am I likely to make that up at the Am Law 100 firm in the future?
