Avoid them! Why would you leave Deloitte SO for a no name boutique? I wasn’t too impressed with them when they were doing OCR a few years back. High turnover, slow progression.

What is the comp they offered and what sort of projects did they want you on?

Massive comp increase but you’re right. They don’t have a good brand and culture is questionable

like

What comp are they offering / where are you now? If you don’t mind sharing. Could only imagine it’d be worth it for a pretty big bump

They definitely do NOT have a good brand and you'd be ruining your chances when you want to leave consulting. Leaving from Deloitte to industry, you have more leverage and negotiating power than if you were to leave Optimus. Don't take a short term $$ gain for a long term gain

Hi Fishes,
I have overall experience of 5yrs. Out of which 3years for US healthcare and 2 years for US mortgage. US mortgage domain has now become thinner as industry almost sunk since most of the companies has laid off employees, I was also the victim. Fortunately, got an opportunity to work Optum but heard rumours about the lay-off in our entire process which is creating a frustration and negativity all around. Please refer me if there's any relevant opening in backhend operations. Thanks!

Hey guys,

The position is in the accounting sector of Deloitte DBS. They told me that the base salary (I’m an entry level) is 18k per year. In Rome I’m actually earning 28k+1k bonus.
Anyone knows why there’s such a great gap in salary? Tomorrow I’ll have the interview so any comments could be helpful. Thx

Anyone here familiar with the hiring process of KPMG consulting in Van? Had a partner interview on Nov 21, thought the feedback was positive but haven't heard back yet (no rejection/offer). Is it something normal or the interview just didn't go as well as I thought?

It's an experienced hire for an SC role. I saw the posting is still open atm, and my guess is that the recruiting team is comparing candidates since competition is higher due to recent layoffs.

Thanks in advance!
