IBM federal vs Deloitte GPS.
Work at IBM for 2 years out of mba school as a SC. Deloitte approached me and gave me an offer 7k above current base for a lateral move. Do i take it for Deloitte’s brand recognition, or stay put with my network in place?IBM Deloitte

Unless you’re really wanting to leave, 7k isn’t all much for the hassle of switching jobs.

Money aside - is Deloitte better for my career?

like

I’ve worked at both, same as you, SC @ IBM out of B school then many years later M @ D. Very different companies, ultimately D is a better company I believe, but very different culturally. No right answer here… the money isn’t enough of a factor to matter, but I do predict if you go to D at SC your work load will go up significantly.

Appreciate the insights

In the fed space, D is almost certainly better for your career, with substantially more opportunities for career growth and development than IBM.

From a culture and comp standpoint, I can't at all speak to IBM. While this lateral offer is a tiny bit higher for D, I can't speak to a long term comp prospect comparison.

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
