Offers:
Deloitte GPS Consultant bench hire
- 90k base, 10k bonus
- pros: Deloitte name, potential to WFH
- cons: lower pay, have to find a project on my own

Accenture federal L9 Consultant
- 105k base, 10k bonus
- pros: higher pay, direct hire position where they have a need
- cons: strict in office 4 days a week, option to WFH once a week

I really value WLB and have loved WFH, but keep in mind I’m coming from a current salary of 70k.

Any advice is appreciated!

I mean the AFS base is >15 % higher. As long as the commute isn’t outrageous seems to be a relatively easy decision. Can bounce to deloitte later on when they put SOME RESPECK ON YOUR NAME

funny

Accenture all the way. Deloitte is known for making you work more then 40 hours so even if you’re remote say goodbye to wlb. And I say this having many friends working for both companies and my deloitte friends advised me against taking a job because I told them that I values wlb over salary. All the fri ends I have that worked at deloitte have left and the ones who work at acn 8/10 are still there.

I think you posted this elsewhere and I replied there but one thing to note is that these positions are different. You mentioned Deloitte said you were capped at 90k but that’s for C. A Consultant at Deloitte is equivalent to Senior Analyst at AFS, which is why Accenture is offering more money (and able to). It’s a higher position. If Deloitte was going to offer you the same position as AFS, that would be SC.

All semantics aside, take the AFS offer

Try to get Deloitte to offer more. Finding a project depending on your skill set is not hard, even with no skill set atm.

I was in similar situation but knew that I wont have to travel for atleast next 6 months with Deloite.. took up uncle D's offer.. you can send Accenture's offer to deloitte, they may not match but might give you a bigger sign on bonus
