Yea this sounds like Accenture tbh. I was there previously. Can confirm it’s solid in all of the things you mention. Pay is dependent on your practice and role. If you get stuck in federal or something than your pay will not be great.

But strategy and consulting pay are more or less competitive with peers, especially for new hires.

ACN might take this one tbh. depends on your definition of “good” pay though

I’d say ACN is prestigious, it ain’t mbb prestigious, but it is

Excellent I’m in the EU so I think Accenture Strategy Paris / Madrid is where it’s at.

Accenture is good. I would also recommend IBM too. It’s a good vibe at IBM

I doubt clients would look to IBM for non tech strategy

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.
