I have received an offer from Deloitte for ‘Project Delivery Senior Anlyst’ position on some technology preferred provider program. It is hire in advance , that means I should get project ‘after joining’.

I have heard PDM is like contract worker, you can get laid off once project ends(just 2 weeks bench). How true is that/how risky it is to join PDM?(considering I am in US on H1B)
2 . How much time it takes to get first project?
I am confused because it’s really better salary than what I make.

I too was concerned about the short bench time coming in but now that I have been here for about 4 years now I learned that as long as you do good work and have good network conections you should not have any problems picking up other projects. You just need to be proactive, staying updated and continuously building your network. AND do you job right.

Thanks a ton D5 , that was informative.

PDM is contract like and heavily dependent on the local project.

Salary wise PDM is better where core consulting makes less. PDM doesn’t needs to travel at all.
Yes what you heard is correct after project ends they give you 2 weeks to find new project in firm. It may go up to 1 month. But most of the practitioner had built trust and network so they get project before rolling off. PFM projects generally long like multi year so it never ends

Core consulting always makes more. They make at least 30% more than PDM.PDM is designed as a cost effective model so the benefits are always lower.
