Need advice: Persistent vs Cognizant for an Android/Flutter developer.

Both offers are almost the same in terms of CTC. My priorities are:

Technical growth
Learning opportunities
Work-life balance
Future salary growth

Cognizant is more AI focused now, they're not picking or bidding for projects with the general tech stack and increasingly focusing on short term (6 month to 1 year) based AIML projects.

So, once this particular project of yours is over chances of getting a new project will be sort of a challenge.

For those who moved from a client serving role to an internal role in public accounting while at a fairly high level (experienced manager or senior manager), did you take a pay cut or does your pay stay flat when you transition with minimal increases in subsequent years? Also what role are you in now? I really like EY and the company. I’d like to look at moving to an internal role but I’m worried I’ve priced myself out (currently at around 140k comp in LCOL).

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started.
