Simon-Kucher & Parters I'm currently doing my internship at Simon-Kucher & Parters (4 hours), and really love the job I do. However, the super long working hours (like 13-14 hours/day) is killing my productivity and gives me no time to relax. I just wake up, work, and go to sleep. Now, I'm offered an internship role, including a full-time job, from P&G's Finance department. Though I'm not a fan of finance, it offers me decent working hours, a nice career path, company culture, but a lower salary. What do you think?

You posted this earlier and people gave you their thoughts. Specifically comp varies greatly after your first few years. If you’re seeking WLB, sure.

Missed your morning post, but I'd recommend starting in consulting and staying for at least a few years - career growth will be quicker, money will be better, unless you have a chronic illness or something that will make those hours physically challenging

Fish who have been feds,

I have been stuck deciding between two offers (both in IC, but one is more program analysis -similar to consulting work but on the fed side, and actual analysis).

The program analysis offer is at a higher GS level and a more well known agency, but is not what I’m interested in.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make a decision? Go with what I want to do, or go with the more well known agency and higher gs?
