Need job opportunity feedback.

Current gig - FDD M2 - will get promoted this year. In a really good group with great people and partner. Pay sucks.

Potential opps:
-ACN M&A strat - Manager - base is at market and substantial pay raise (50+%) with nice sign on bonus. Perf Bonus is likely 10-13%. Currently have offer

-A&M PEPI CFO Services - way smaller base than ACN but crazy TC upside with utilization bonus. Still in interview process. WLB will take a big hit.

What would you choose?

A&M, then accenture strat

Would try to leverage the ACN internally and see that they can do. Everyone is hurting for people right now so you have upper hand, if you actually like it and the only gap is comp

I’d consider what your long term career goals are. ACN M&A and PEPI CFO Services likely have different exit ops

A&M. And stay away from ACN unless you want to do IT strategy in the guise of corporate strategy.

Sounds like it’s the ACN folks who worked on IT tried to leave and the others stayed

What city

Dallas

What is the utilization bonus based on? Is it tied to fees at risk or engagement performance? Or just being over 100% utilization

In ACN M&A, happy to chat. Summary: love it here. Great people, strong culture, good exits into corporate strategy and Corp Dev. Also came from big 4 Transactions

It’s end to end. PE, target screening, DD (tech, operations, commercial, etc., NOT financial), IMO / SMO), pre-close functional support.

Are you in B4 currently? If yes maybe I will apply for your job! Which one?!

DM me. We are hiring quite agressively

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
