To all current Big4 consultants- I constantly see people posting on this app how toxic consulting culture can be. With that in mind, am I better off accepting a F100 rotational leadership development program with first year 75k base, 11k relocation bonus (receive each year for 3 years), 6k sign on, and 6-12k EOY performance bonus. Would consulting comp make up for the toxic culture?? Keep in mind, I’m currently intern at this company and it’s a very well known CPG company and has a great culture

Not a B4 consultant but it sounds like you already know which option to take.

No not quite… I’m specifically asking if the comp difference makes up for the culture from a perspective of a consultant (ideally a recent grad)

Consulting is actually not that toxic of a culture if you can find a good firm. I think the leadership development program is a great option

I agree with this. Its the firm that makes the difference.

C1, in terms of comp would I be missing out on much compared to consulting?

I really don’t think this is the case. If you can find a good company with a good culture, you’ll be better off.

Looking to move on from current role however bonus/pay review period in 6 months (base jump likely to be around 10%). Is it better to wait to get the bump then negotiate off that for next role or start looking for roles now and accept if can find a jump of 15-20%? (understand that it might be possible to negotiate sign on to compensate for missed bonus). Any generic rule of thumb / insights that have helped ppl? Leaning towards staying until bonus/pay review period at present. Thanks.
