Need some advice, recently got an offer from Deloitte (140k base, 15k sign on) and Accenture offered a counter (125k, 15k bonus). Is it worth accepting the counter? Current base: 92k

Take it and join us. That's an insane offer for Consultant level. You can stay a couple years and go back to ACN for 180-200.
Out of curiosity, what practice at Deloitte?

Despite all the bad things you hear about Deloitte, that’s a really good comp. it’s not a good feeling if Accenture can’t even match it. Assuming they give you the lip service that your Accenture network is valuable, I would still make the jump. It’s early in your career so unless if you’re super close with all of the lead MDs, I would jump ship. Accenture will always take you back

That’s fair. Same advice if it was the other way around. Goes to show how similar they are

You can always go back to Accenture with an even bigger pay bump. They don't wanna give you 140K today, but with the big D...they'll give you way more later.

Jump, never accept a counter
You can always come back to Accenture!

Never take a counter - there was a reason you're leaving in the first place, and their counter is 15k lower lol

IMO head to Daddy D. Money is better, and it’s stupid but Deloitte carries a better rep than Accenture (not that Accenture is bad), but it might open more doors in a few years.

If you like Accenture and have a good network here, I’d take the counter from Accenture.

Is Deloitte offer a SC role?

D9 you’re thinking Analyst. Deloitte doesn’t normally pay bonuses to Analysts, they start at consultant.

What practice OP???

If you value WLB maybe ACN is the place to stay and work your way to a higher base

Hmmm, nvm take the money and the D.
From a consulting brand perspective, D trumps ACN

Do you value having a life?

Hey folks, I'm getting an offer as a SC in EY UK. Presently I'm a manager with EY India (up for SM next yr Oct 2021). Comp is 55k range (haven't officially received the figure, a few more days it's expected, doing some homework before that).
