I've been contacted by a recruiter from PwC about roles in their new "PwC Cloud Practice".
Does anyone have any info on this new practice and how it differs to mainline PwC?
I know a lot of Management Consultancies set up their Tech Subsidiaries like a poor relative with sub par expenses and compensation policies etc. Don't know if this is the case here?

Loyalty is for dogs, not tech workers. Jump every 18 months and don’t look back.
Jump for the bag, but with some strategy. Turning around and leaving constantly can eventually put red flags all over you.
If I had my time again I would chase the money and sell any equity as soon as you are allowed. I’ve stayed in jobs too long and held equity while it sank.
I care about what I'm being paid in the present moment, not what "might" be in the future. We are seeing a rapid change in the industry, and I bet a lot of people who were banking on loyalty are now in a very bad position.
Keep it simple. Give the same "loyalty" you get. Corporate loyalty is measured in net worth. If the current place is giving you equity and base compensation that outpaces the market, don't move. If the current place is falling behind, move. If it is neither negative nor positive, talk to whoever decides your comp and make them beat the market while keeping your ears open for new opportunities.
Run your life like a business. Your time is what you invest; always make the best choice for return on that investment.

Both have trade-offs , hopping can boost pay fast, but staying can build equity and deeper connections. It really depends on your long-term goals.
Jumping gave me faster comp growth, but staying helped me build trust, equity, and influence that paid off in less obvious ways. I think the best strategy is knowing when to jump and when to stay and invest.
