CIS at OW is pretty good, but to be quite honest, you can switch practices once you get in the door.
Choose not the brand (arguably the same) but the people that you like the most during interviews and networking. When I’m on a 65+ hour burner project, the team and Partner makes SOOO much difference.

Are you at OW currently?

Transactions here is mostly implementation and PMO, so I'd go OW in a heartbeat

The real question is if you wanna do back to back DDs or a mix of ops and strategy work. EYP transactions is 80% DDs. OW AMI is a mix of ops and strategy unless you are affiliated with Private Capital (which sounds like you won’t be)

What do you want to do in the long term?

Still torn on if I want to pursue partner. Ideally whichever firm offers a solid track to partner while also providing a solid network should i exit

I got offers at both places earlier this year. EYP people were way way cooler, for what it’s worth. Money was approx same. EYPs new bonuses make it competitive again

smart

EYP verbal offer came the next day. OW was like 3 days for verbal

Depends on practice

Updated post

Are the $$ offers going to be close?

They both are in the same building and floor bank, so that is a plus. EY sits higher, if that makes a difference 😂

I don’t understand how someone can lie about loving you for 6 months. We were together for almost a year (broke up a week before our anniversary). I said I love you first and he said it back. I asked for more reassurance last month with saying I love you more often. Now all of a sudden he said he didn’t know if he loved me and that love meant marriage for him. Okay well great thanks for telling me this now, 6 months after it was initially exchanged. I don’t understand how he could do that.
