Just got a huge offer from a start up! 300k base. I heard RECESSION starts in July 2022, does it make sense to keep my 150 K job at Accenture and reject the offer? Don’t want to risk getting fired from start up. Please share some advice. I heard it on the news today, Nasdaq is at a 14 year low

You need to take the opportunity. Any big firm would take you right back if needed. These firms preach loyalty only as a brainwashing technique - it’s doesn’t really get you much in return.

If McKinsey decides when the recession starts that leaves Accenture to figure out who’s going to jail when the pyramid scheme collapses.

It isn’t just return but also a function of how much capital was pumped into VCs in a low interest environment. Made it highly competitive also which led to higher multiples as well. Not sure how many VCs can boast a disciplined investing approach…

Well, you can just make it 6 months, get fired and take 6 months off to find a new gig. Come out even.

I heard RECESSION wont be till December actually.

likefunnyhelpful

I was wondering why it was in all caps too

likefunnyuplifting

For those poking at July …. Q1 was negative growth. A recession is technically two quarters which we would know in July. I don’t see much positive news or metrics which don’t at least point to a very real probably of a 2nd quarter negative gdp as well.

❤️ that was so cool wasn't it... I can't believe people came on here and ruined it... at least we have the memories

Sign the offer before the start up sees this 😂😂

If you KNOW the recession starts in July: take all your savings, short the market, infinite money.

Nitpicking: Shorting isn’t infinite money. The market can’t go below 0. It does have infinite loss potential (in theory).

Seriously? Accenture pays 150k to a person that manages a client that is worth 3 mil ? All I do is push SQL tables around and I get 105k + performance 6% bonus.

If you’re savings are in a good place and you can survive layoffs for a month or two, I would jump that 150k boat and paddle away.
