Thoughts on Cyber/generally working for EY vs Accenture?

I got a nice offer from EY which I have to decide on next week, meanwhile Accenture is still trying to schedule my final interview. Part of me just wants to sign with EY and say thanks to Accenture, but that’s probably mostly due to my prejudice to ACN from the shit talking on this app 😂. Can anyone shed some light on the comparative experience between these 2?

Take the offer and sign with EY. Continue interviewing at Accenture but the offer could get delayed there anyways. If you’re happy at EY then you’re good. If you get a great offer at Accenture you can reconsider. Worst case you pass on EY and then Accenture doesn’t materialize.

Accenture is definitely more technical than EY when it comes to some of their projects. So it depends on what you’re looking for when you say Cyber

Friends, need some feedback on an idea:

I’m thinking of starting a podcast interviewing leaders at startups about their experience with specific challenges - I know, cliche, get a more original hobby, etc.

Not looking for the narrative arc of How I Built This or Masters of Scale. Instead, looking to uncover specific problems faced by companies that tried something new for the first time. What did they not see coming, how did they adapt and measure, etc.

What are your thoughts on this format?
