Need help and advise:

Current another big 4 - Tech Implementation, SA: $110K + $5K (sign on)
(recently moved from industry, less than a year), love the team and client. WLB so far so good, year end feedback positive, will put me on Mgr track next year.

Being poached by Deloitte - Supply Chain and Procurement, SC: $150K + $10K (sign on). I think work might be more interesting and challenging, WLB might be worse than now, slower promotion, but good money.

Should I jump ship so soon?

If you’re a software engineer at a tech company a half step below FANG, does it make sense to consider BCG Gamma?

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can. For example, my firm will favor a former prosecutor who has seen the courtroom a lot but has no civil litigation experience (not even a depo) over a seasoned associate who has only second chaired cases with a partner but hasn’t tried a case. Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.
