Is it a good time to join KPMG Toronto Right now or Protiviti Toronto?

I am a newly landed immigrant here. Senior Consultant IT Audit L3.
KPMG is offering 80K + 12K Joining Bonus and no Variable Pay.
Protiviti is offering 84K + 12K Joining Bonus and 10% Variable Pay

Please advise.

AD at Protiviti here. Protiviti has *far* better work/life balance than KPMG at the tradeoff of reputation (currently climbing) and caliber of clientele. I'd take the Protiviti offer.

Just as another perspective…if your life priorities allows for some longer hours, having big 4 experience on your resume is always going to open doors. You can always jump to Protiviti later on after KPMG

True, but from an IT Audit perspective if one’s looking to jump to industry, I think experience at P might be more helpful ! Non IT Audit exits are very few at a SC3/M level !

That’s a great offer and I think joining us would make the most sense. I can confirm the overall WLB/culture here (when we’re all together in-person) is unmatched.

like

Protiviti WLB is far better. I’ve never been forced or pressured to work more than I was comfortable with (I’ve never been penalized for setting boundaries). I also can’t name an IT audit colleague who hasn’t been presented with an competing offer from a client.

Where does your interest lie ? - internal or external audits ? Also I heard Protiviti had a better wlb , not sure though !

like

Not anymore wlb is equivalent of the b4 now. It was definitely better in the past but not anymore.Better question would be in which place would you prefer your soul to die? 😋KPMG has more prestige and some places at least pre pandemic would not hire you without b4 experience.

I am considering an offer for an AE role (UK-LDN) where the base is £42k & OTE is £70k. The Regional GM has verbally promised to move it up to £50k base if I perform well during the probationary period, but I can’t have it in writing on the contract. I’ve tried to counter offer but they said I’m currently maxing the salary band (L4). This role is exciting as I’d be the first UK employee, doing the full sales cycle & more but I had the same base and ote as an SDR. Is it too low? Do I take it?
