I have just been promoted to Mgmnt Consultant in Accenture but have a BCG offer in another country. I’m happy at ACN and have a really good WLB and growth opportunities even if the salary is not as good as BCG’s… not sure if I should swap companies and move countries just to be able to work at a top tier firm.. any advice to help my decision?

I’d move to BCG if you don’t mind the hours….simply for the prestige and the personal location change. Depends on what you value though and if you want wlb and comfort

From where are you moving? US to Madrid? Wouldn’t do that if you are dependent on a us visa and want to be there long term

If you were unsure why waste both of your time getting to the final rounds?

Moving to an entirely new country is a huge commitment. If I wasn’t a native, have family there, or wasn’t already planning on moving to said country, then I wouldn’t take the offer

I would move and work for BCG. That prestige is worth it. I would also move only because living in another country is absolutely mind blowing from a personal level.

Assuming you’re single, can easily relocate between countries, can speak Spanish and are wanting / open to working in another country.

I’d caution about it because you’re heading into the hard mode: your new job probably require long hours yet in the limited personal time you have to deal with a lot more: a new environment means apartment hunting, shopping for new supplies, making new friends. There will be moments of regret or even more because you are currently happy at your job.

If it’s the overseas location you like, can you ask for that at Accenture? And also ask for a pay raise? Problem solved.

HiAll, My lead resigned and my manager informed me just 2 weeks before her lwd on this and asked me to take up all their responsibilities. I don't think this is not a professional way to handle things and KTs are not properly given. I'm really worried if this will affect my career. I'm not really interested to work in this project. I have tried many ways to release me from this project . But manager is really amendment to release as there is no senior member in the team.

How do you get leverage as an internal transfer? A buddy of mine with similar experience and location received an external offer for nearly $100k TC more than my internal offer for the same role.

I’m in big law and on the cusp of making the jump to in-house. It sounds like the company I just interviewed with is getting ready to make me an offer. It’s definitely going to be a pay cut coming from big law but I do get some nice equity in the company. Is the jump worth it? I’m so burnt out by big law and this seems like an awesome opportunity to help shape a newish company. Any tips on how to figure out if this is the right move for me?
