Appreciate the advice. Yeah im leaving towards staying mainly cause of GSAP and because I'm not convinced the smaller firm is all that great. However the for superficial reasons the increase in pay and title is intriguing

How much is he increase in pay? My advice: Stick with Deloitte or move up to MBB if you're in consulting. Just keep doing those projects that interest you until you find be right exit opp

Rejected the offer. Staying w/the greendot

Good choice probably.
