I think the important question is - how much do you currently make? If you’re making 80, that’s a great offer even without the joining bonus. If you’re making 110 on the other hand, it’s terrible. Deloitte and BCG (I know it’s Platinion) would be tremendous on your resume, considering you are so young.

Doesn't sound great to me

115 is great for 3 years out of school. For bcg it seems a bit weak

EY would offer more. It’s a weak offer unless you’re getting the BCG retirement benefits

The BCG brand is literally crumbling in the market- wouldn’t tarnish the resume.. think long and hard on this one.

Vacation - elective day off to recharge
Sick - sick or medical related
Personal - sick kid, sick parent, bereavement, religious holiday, any other day you need to be off that is reasonable

Cyber related case study. 4 rounds of interview

Can probably negotiate signing bonus. On the consulting side, vacay and salaries are system wide and set. Platinion is on a diff pay scale to consulting team.

Not a great offer. Also, can you negotiate anything? You can negotiate *everything* if you're not desperate to get in.
