Boutiques are amazing. Ive worked at Accenture and PWC.

I love my boutique in Chicago. Pay and bonus (minimum 20%) is greater than previous firms I have worked. Culture is startup and entrepreneurial. Once you get some experience I highly suggest boutique consulting firms where you're noticed vs slogging at a gigantic company.

Anyone hear work as a data scientist at KPMG Lighthouse in Canada? What kind of work do you do - is it technical or more strategy based?
I’ve received a full-time offer from them and another big-4 for a more engineering based job, and I’ve got a week to decide. KPMG decided to omit the salary (due to Covid), so if anyone has salary insights for a new hire, undergrad, in Canada, that would be appreciated as well. Thanks.

I accepted a $115K base salary, 13% bonus, 10k sign on bonus (scientist supervisor) job and two weeks later, got a $135K base, 17% bonus, and 15K sign on bonus (Senior scientist role) offer from another company. Should I accept the new offer ? How do I tell the previous company about this? Also, I’ve already negotiated with the first company and the $115K base is the negotiated salary. I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏

This isn’t something my company typically offers and would greatly change the scope of my role. Has anyone ever taken on a role like this? If so, were you able to negotiate a percentage of the consulting fee? Or was it a bump in salary during the project?
