I wish there was a consulting version of what’s happening in Golf right now. Would you take 10X your salary to work for the Saudi’s?

LIV players have 1/8 events in SA - rest are in US, UK, and Thailand. They are also getting paid more money to play 8 events than they would make playing in 3-4x as many events in PGA.

So for a proper comparison, imagine you get offered a job where you still work where you normally do for most part and work 1/3 of the year only. And you get paid more.

I’d take it. Accenture does business in SA so if I had a moral issue against it, what justification do I have to work for them or any other company that profits from SA now?

Oh please - the number of atrocities US and UK have committed along the years in the name of "democracy" and "saving those poor helpless local populations" 🙄

Having global media on your side and being able to shape the truth to your advantage doesn't change the underlying actions. Not pointing a finger at US or UK, just saying powerful countries will do what they will do. Some are just slightly more elegant and adept than others in presenting their version of the reality.

That’s just not true, SM1 — empirically so. People from all over the world come to study at American universities, or have American babies. There are people all over the world who break the law and in some cases risk their lives to come live in the US illegally, and think that existence is better than where they came from. There’s nowhere else on earth that someone can go and assimilate in such a short time. My parents came from Korea 40 years ago; 1 generation later I’m a consulting partner and despite not being white I’m fully American.

Again, I’m not trying to pretend America is perfect. It’s not. But to be dismissive about the fact that Saudi Arabia is really just a bunch of religious fanatics supporting tens of thousands of rich princelings by brutalizing and oppressing the rest of the population just because America isn’t perfect is ridiculous.

I'd risk it even though I'm gay. Earning several million dollars in 2 years would be life changing, and I have no realistic alternative to get that much money.

Yep. Sure would. Added bonus, the ME market is one of the only where there would be more than 5 people that look like me in my department😂😂😂

Considering the US is in shambles and on the decline, I see it no worse than working for our Fed. Just look at what the US has, and is still doing to Hawaii and PR and had the January 6th coup actually worked, our democracy would probably be at the same level as the Saudis.

All in all, if they were going to pay me 10x my salary, my one negotiation point would be, I need to be somewhere cooler for the summer, from March to October, I need to be in Mykonos or somewhere similar😂

The mental gymnastics so many commenters do to justify selling out. At least be intellectually honest about it

Even if EY matches my salary, and promote me to Manager, I will be an EY Manager with a Deloitte SC salary, and probably won't be able to go to D in the future. What do you think? I have built up a good relationship with my Partner and SMs at EY though.
