ACN is the no brainer answer of SAP consulting

Why not apply to be a senior SAP consultant at SAP making 115-125k base and have a much better WLB? Lol but Senior consultants at SAP usually have 5+ YOE. Idk what you’re at

like

Ah ok. That’s really solid for 2 YOE. I’m just shy of 4 and at 95k base + bonus at the mothership itself.

Accenture is the best place to be for SAP hands down. Implementation, software and sales is ACN bread and butter. You’ll get promoted faster and be able to take on bigger roles if you already have a niche. Go for it! Dm me if you accept it.

Update:
I went back to EY and said I was thinking about leaving for Accenture. They upped their offer to a $25k bonus.

I went back to Accenture and they said they would match EY’s offer.

I’m going to take Accenture’s offer of $110k base + $25k signing bonus

Heck yeah!

But numbers alone I’d take Accenture.

Don’t take the EY offer, Accenture has better 401k match, stock discount and will okey increase your sign on if you say you are thinking about it because you have a counter. Best part ACN sign on only has 1 year clause

like

Definitely take ACN. I think you will get similar raises and a much better bonus at ACN. But hey what do I know I’m a Cyber guy at EY

What's the difference in cost of living between tier 2 and 3 cities? I think you should evaluate that. If you consider that a tier 2 city costs more, than Accenture offer is way more valuable and would allow you better money saving.

like

Yeah either way you’re locked in with the signing bonus so why not take the higher salary and another yoe. Plus if you decided to leave you can negotiate for a higher salary somewhere else.

Also evaluate this from a forward looking lens. Growth trajectory (pay and time taken), if you had to move to other locations - which company has an office, culture, clientele.

When you're rejecting either offer, you can request the companies to hold your profile if an opportunity opens up in a preferred city or something.

Additionally don't overthink, if you don't enjoy whichever one you pick, you can always move.

like

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush - take ACN if you're ok with the city. Lots of consultants don't stay past two years.

like

Both of these offers are low as hell. Go be an independent contractor a senior SAP consultant can pull in $150hr

like

Take it if you want to go to the T3 city

Pay bands are wide enough and the best way to get decent increases this early in your career is to jump anyways that it’s not really too big of a consideration. Congrats on the job!

Stay at EY then go to SAP.

Network isn’t quite as critical at that level, and you’ll make up for lost time very quickly here. Take the job, Accenture is a solid place to work

like

ACN. Wouldn't you get to travel anyway? So does T3 matter?

ACN for SAP especially with those numbers. I Match that even at fed side with a year in and was up for promo already. Good SAP people do well here it seems like.
