What is the normal time companies give to decide on an offer? I’m at the end of the process with one company (think an offer is a potential) but still in round 2 with another, so trying to estimate timeframes

At most, a few days. You can always accept and rescind your acceptance if a better offer comes along.

It shouldn't take too long. You can always accept the other offer down the line if they end up offering you more money or better benefits and just let the first company know. It would probably burn a bridge with the first company, but you need to do what's in your best interest.

100% depends on how you were recruited and the situation of the company. I have been offered positions in less than 24 hours of an interview and my partner experienced a 2 month offer delay because they felt he was a great fit but didn’t finish setting up the team and office and overestimated the interview process.

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Should I Go Back and Reneg? Recently I was offered a role as a Project Implementation Manager (In Retirement Services) .The salary range for Colorado residents was 65-89K.

Ultimately he came back at 90K which is a bit inline with that I was seeing on Glassdoor but approx looks like I may leave 10-12K on the table. I accepted already but may get an offer from another HR company in account management around 90-100K. Need advice

I finally got a raise (after 10 years) from 45k to 50k with less than 10k in incentives while others who are just starting at lower positions make more than me..I want to bring this up but don’t want to come off in a bad way considering they finally gave me a raise this year.
