I just received an offer from Deloitte to come in at the Consultant level in their GPS sector. I feel I’m being compensated pretty well with a 105k base and 5k sign-on bonus (I posted a couple of hours ago and my 17 month old managed to delete it somehow). Anyways, I would love to hear some brutally honest opinions of what the work-life balance could possibly look like.

GPS is pretty chill with hours from what I’ve heard, usually capped at 45 per week. For 105k that is a solid deal especially as a consultant. You’re probably making more than 80% of your peers as a C1 in GPS

That’s a misconception. Some projects have a cap but most don’t.

Yup definitely a good deal. I’m a first year C making 85K with 4 YOE and high clearance.

D4, GPS is Government & Public Sector. It’s the division of D that works with govt/non-profit clients. GPS consultants typically earn less, but it’s also one of the fastest growing areas and Deloitte is one of the top firms in the space. And defining the role of a consultant is a constant challenge lol. Consultants consult. The term “consulting” covers everything from tech consulting (building apps and dashboards for clients), to helping them implement AI solutions, to helping them review HR practices, to helping them develop a long-term strategy for a turnaround, acquisition, cost-cutting etc. I think strategy/management consulting is typically what people think of when they hear consulting (it’s similar to what McKinsey Bain BCG do) but Deloitte Consulting has a much wider range of offerings. In short, consulting is about identifying client problems and developing solutions. In terms of switching, it can be pretty difficult to switch into Deloitte Consulting but the best way is to do some research, narrow down what kind of consulting you’d be interested in (both in terms of industry and skillset) and then set up virtual coffee chats with people in that field.

D3, that’s not the band. I’ve met C1s making low 80s all the way to 120. But for GPS, 105 is amazing.

OP- What is your rank and YOE in the military?

Army E-6 w/8yrs exp TS-SCI. Offered Analyst role in GPS (USDC) for $59k SEP2020. Your offer is definitely fantastic as P1 stated.
