Tech consulting

EY risk "consulting" is 58k in my city. ACN is 75k. No brainer

like

EY1 nailed it. At EY, you want to be in Financial Services...otherwise risk consulting may just mean internal audit/accounting advisory.

like

Don't accept a RAP offer - switch to TAP or go to acn. RAP is severly underpaid compared to the rest of ACP

like

Tech Consulting is a better field than Risk Advisory in general. I'm guessing the offer for TC is more?

like

Isn't "risk consulting" more or less an extension of audit activities? I ask because that doesn't even fall under consulting at D; advisory is a separate function. I would look at where you want your career to take you, and if you want to move towards strategic work at some point, go to ACN.

I interned in EY (regional) RAP and switched to national TAP at EY for full time. Would 100% recommend if you're looking to stay at EY. Otherwise, do Accenture

How much is a staff 1 salary for tech consulting @ accenture?

I was RAP this summer but trying to figure out if I should accept my EY offer or recruit for tech strategy at ACN

There are significantly fewer spots in TAP or ACN TC. A lot of RAP interns I know were even given an interview for TAP.
