I don’t plan on sticking with consulting (ie. not going for partner track), would it be more financially rewarding to work in tech as a swe or corporate strat at a F500? Don’t really have high ambitions to grind my way to the top of the ladder. Willing to work hard throughout my 20s but want to settle down by mid 30s

Deloitte question. I have always gotten a raise each year, the only question I ask is how much of a raise do I get. But I’m hearing from former Deloitte folks, it is naive to expect annual raises each year however small/big they are? And how does this play in Deloitte consulting vs advisory? Do one tend to withhold annual raises in base salary over the other, or is this just a deloitte culture thing? Looking at exit opportunities all over. So lmk! I’d Rather get a small raise than none at all.
