Is an exit to Guidehouse for a 30% pay bump as a senior consultant (2 yoe, currently a senior consultant at EY) worth it? Looking for a jump in salary but also a better wlb

interviewing for SC at EY tomorrow in Federal space - is the wlb terrible?

Im not in the federal space, and have heard the wlb in federal is better than commercial. My wlb has been bad, but I think that has largely been the projects I keep being pulled on

How much is a 30% pay bump? I think 30% is a good amount as an increase. If there are no external factors or issues I’d take it

Hmm if you’re not sure about staying in consulting but want the pay bump then I’d take the offer and maybe stay for 6 months to a year while you’re looking for a new role outside of consulting so you can reap the benefits of the pay increase while planning your exit

Wondering what people think about my situation. I’ve been offered a role with a company. The job description didn’t mention college degree as a requirement.

It’s a 4 year degree and under this I have my High School equivalent with the years I attended there. The education wasn’t mentioned in the interviews. Continued below.

Do you take the current economy into consideration when receiving job offers?

Not my current scenario but just curious. I would like to make a move from current employer but this economy has me spooked.
