I just got a job at Bank, after recently transitioning out of banking into another sector at PwC . I am tired in my current role but the bank is offering the same 6k less base than PwC but with higher bonus, 401k match etc. I really didn’t want to move to banking but applied to see what interview questions they ask, but turns out I interview well. Not sure if I should take the job.

Why would you join if you don’t like banks and you’re not in rush to quit PwC? IMO consulting experience can pivot career but the first job post consulting will pretty much anchor your later career path and scope. Do you want to see yourself spent some lifetime in banking when you look back at 80s?
