Looking to switch from Booz Allen to EYP and wondering if the extra 10-20k per year will be worth it. I have great work life balance now that I’m on one project and working from home. Worried about going back to the rat race having to work extra hours on many different projects because “it looks good to be busy”. Seems like so many people are miserable in their role (in consulting in general). What are your thoughts?

Personally i wouldn’t do it for $10k-$20k. I worked at Booz and moved to EY (not EYP). Work life balance is great at Booz compared to EY, EYP is a totally different beast. It’s real consulting with a lot of travel involved, long hours and some weekend too. Maybe for 50% I would give it a try.

Thoughts: Managers and senior managers should intervene when project folks starts working more than 8 hours. It's sad that initially everybody talks about 8 hours work goal but employee forced or end up working more than 10 hours. Company is not asking you to work more than 8 hours, it's the pressure from peers and seniors and managers who do "a gentle request" to finish a task asap.
Also managers, Please teach new techies to hold the horses and not put there peer in pressure.
