KPMG advisory ($115k) or TCS ($125k)? Relatively similar roles. Things to consider on these two companies? Thanks in advance for any insights!

Presuming you’re early stage career. KPMG much better exit and progression. cash out to TCS later in your career. $10k? No way worth it

Sorry - ACN at $95k

+1 on what SC1 said. But 95k to 125k sounds very attractive. Do you like KPMG? Is it possible to negotiate the base or total comp?

KPMG may not be the greatest place but I am shocked anyone would recommend TCS over them. OP, do yourself a favor and decline the TCS offer immediately. It'll be a stain on your resume and will significantly (negatively) affect your exit ops and long term compensation

My vote is TCS. $ always win + TCS probably will have less travel. $95-$125 very good bump. My personal experience, big 4 will not have work life balance and you will be overloaded with work including weekends. Try getting more information on TCS work culture, work culture in big 4 is not that great. So best shot is search about TCS and try to get a view form employees.. don’t read reviews it doesn’t help rather search a contact within and get opinion. Good luck!

This isnt true. Big 4 is better and actually better work life balance. You're talking about audit work life balance , not consulting which as we all know depends. Have only worked 2 Saturdays in my life at KPMG

Best part about TCS, no independence restrictions on anything. I considered joining KPMG, I would have had to dump a ton of stock because they were restricted. No thanks!

Hi fishes, in a dilemma....switched to a Big4 from MNC(almost 7 years of exp) in April 2020. The pay was normalised at 15.5LPA. Will get the package revised next month to 16.25 LPA. Now Deloitte has approached, so can I ask for 30%pay hike considering the switch will happen after completing almost 11-12 months in my current organization or can I ask for more than 30%, depending if I get a senior consultant or manager role? Also will the switch within a year have any negative impact?
