Wanted to get some opinions here. I’m an M2 in Cyber looking to eventually make a move to big tech or an SM or Dir at a big industry client. Have an offer of 190K base with 20% bonus to be a Mgr at Accenture. Reason to leave - want more technical exp before moving to Big tech and better comp. although PwC increased salary this year, it’s not in the same ball park at this point. Don’t see myself staying to make partner/MD at either firm. Welcome all suggestions on what I should do.
