Hi all, I just got a job offer at PwC for a senior consultant position. The salary is 30% above my total comp right now, but I’m just worried about the amount of work I will have to put in compared to my amazing work life balance now. Does anyone have any experience moving from industry to consulting? I need some advice on what to do. I’m still early in my career (1.4yoe) so I feel like I shouldn’t care too much about wlb, but at the same time, I don’t want my mental health to suffer either.
anyone up for chat?

W4 is a lot easier for a newbie. The paychecks work the same as a fulltimer. Plus, once the gig ends, you can collect unemployment until your next gig.
Make sure to say the gig ended due to “lack of work.” It’s legal, don’t feel dirty about it.
Also, if it’s W4, will they take taxes out or will I just have to pay them when I file down the road?
They take taxes out for W4.
Agree with ACD1. Was able to apply this year cause I was W4 at my last gig.
