I am an exp associate in SF

Wew.. but thanks pwc2, what’s the office like? And does anyone live in like Berkeley? Or more towards Mountain View? Does it get any cheaper farther out in any direction?

Sorry for the late response. Lots of people live in Oakland/Berkeley/east bay. Rents are a bit cheaper a there. Rents in Mountain View/ South Bay are actually more expensive than the city so not really worth it

I overall like the office environment. People tend to be pretty nice, but you will work long hours and you will not be compensated enough for it

Hi all, I just got a job offer at PwC for a senior consultant position. The salary is 30% above my total comp right now, but I’m just worried about the amount of work I will have to put in compared to my amazing work life balance now. Does anyone have any experience moving from industry to consulting? I need some advice on what to do. I’m still early in my career (1.4yoe) so I feel like I shouldn’t care too much about wlb, but at the same time, I don’t want my mental health to suffer either.
