Was offered a SA role at Guidehouse vs Consultant role at Deloitte (GPS). Comp is roughly the same (Guidehouse ~ $5k higher). Thoughts on what to do? TIA!

I was a Consultant with Deloitte GPS. Laid-off last month. Recently joined Guidehouse as SA with a 40% bump in base. Why are you getting similar offers for different levels?

Lol G5, yep!!! Some of the same people in leadership who were so ‘excited’ about the transition to Guidehouse are at different firms now. 😂

What’s the comp base?

5k difference isn’t a lot... go to Deloitte, you’ll learn a lot, currently at Guidehouse and it isn’t a bad company but you’ll be exposed to more at Deloitte.. if the people aren’t for you, then leave for A Lot more money

Offering advice to job seekers who go around recruiters and message hiring teams, execs, etc. You are putting the Recruiters job in danger. If a Recruiter declines you or doesn’t choose to reach out, it is because the hiring team declined you, or you don’t have the experience. You will most likely not be considered for future roles because of this. When I see people giving advice to reach outside the Recruiter, it’s bad advice. Very rare is this a good idea.

Thinking about switching in house jobs from one bank to another. Current job is great for work life balance but no promotion prospects and pay is below market. New job offers a better title and better pay but work life balance is a bit of an unknown. What kind of questions would you pose to the new employer/team when trying to ascertain what work life balance awaits? Any tips of setting boundaries early on without inviting judgment? Need flexibility to pick up my kids from childcare every day…
