Interviewed for a SC role within S&A at Deloitte but the team came back and said they feel more comfortable bringing me in as a C. The salary would be comparable to what I’m making now. So, my question is: is the D brand worth making a lateral move for? The place I currently work is not as “prestigious”, but all-in-all it’s a good company and I have incredible WLB for a Consultant.

Maybe if you're at a place you aren't happy and that has no brand recognition, but in this environment it's hard to imagine you could push for a healthy raise.

I'd try to negotiate something with D (since it doesn't hurt) but otherwise just apply to other Big 4 and get paid for your jump

Why were you considering a move to Deloitte? Does this offer still bring what u were looking for?

Don't fall for the brand name. Yes, it has value but it's not the only brand name firm out there.

There is an opportunity that I’m currently interviewing for that is very interesting to me. I’m interviewing two other places but I’m not responding to LinkedIn emails for other positions. The other positions don’t interest me as much. On one hand I don’t want to waste time prepping for all positions and rather put that time only for the ones that I have going on, on the other hand I feel like what is that falls through. Wondering if I’m making the right choice
