I am a graduating student who just got offered 65k for a solution analyst role at Deloitte USDC (Data Engineering Focus). From reading previous posts it seems to be a lot of negative thoughts surrounding the USDC, but straight out of college is this a good opportunity?
I'm looking to gain as much experience as possible out of college in an IT role and wondering what exit opportunities may be in place a year or two down the road if there is little/slow progression.
Any Advice?
I want to earn good money without compromising on WLB.
This is my profile
1 year at a Fintech firm in Product role (Current Role) in Gurgaon
1 year at PwC as Consultant 1
MBA (Finance) grad Skills: SQL, Excel, Power BI, Client Issues, Jira for bug reports and tracking team activities, etc.
Any companies that anyone can suggest? Any other skills that I should pick up? Current base pay is 10 LPA. I feel a bit underpaid.
Want to stay in similar business analyst, product analyst roles.

Sounds like HP. I wouldn't want to work from home full time to be honest. Half the reason I agree with the consulting expenses is because it really is worth it to be face to face with peers and leadership. That being said, I often find myself on calls all week even when I'm traveling.
OP you can't make a decision that's going to determine the rest of your career. You can't turn down a great offer bc 4 years feels right over 2 years consulting. Nothing is forever and big 4 loves former big 4. Take it!

Am Mid-career. Single. No kids. Never time to date. Have been relegated to note taker on last project. Offer Industry is Technology. Established company, over 50 years old. Entire team, including management is remote. Am worried I might get bored/stagnate though? Is that a valid enough concern not to take role?
Jump, jump jump! You can always come back if you miss us. I would in a heartbeat
Apparently I'm the only who thinks 15% is a nothing bump.
100% work from home how?
I would to take a paycut for 100% WFH
Sorry, not comfortable posting actual company name. Doesn't feel kosher somehow.
You should also think about what is it that you will want next year and 5 years from now. Ok with same responsibilities and nominal salary (it always gets evened out) increases. Gives you more time for maybe other priorities in life.
Just make sure they don't ask you to wire them money via Western Union to Africa
What company?
Good point PWC3. I have 6 years before consulting and almost 2 in consulting. I am concerned I'd be dead ending at this industry job. But honestly, the last project I was on seemed like a glorified note taker and projects in the pipeline don't seem like skill builders either.
Take it. You will probably get bored in a year or two so do not burn bridges on your way out.
Can't be real.
Btw if early career working from home is a really bad idea.
Many say the potential for growth is higher if you can make it in consulting? Aka partner track. That's an obvious right? But what are others' thoughts on how to make this decision/trade off!
Op if early career you need to be around other smart people who can teach you. Deloitte and pdubs offer a good mix of client work and firm activities.
15% raise is nothing. I wouldn't leave for that.
Negotiate a 20 % bump minimum. I just got 22%. 😳😜✌🏾️
