How much stock do you put on benefits? I have two offers with stark differences in benefits. Job 1: role I want, but benefit sucks (2 weeks paternity leave, 20% coinsurance).

I wonder if I should just focus on role but Job 2 is a large company, so I can move around after 2-3 years I’d expect. Thoughts?

I give her a nice bonus and raise each year. Do I pay it once as a good will gesture? She has other clients too that she drives too.

Deloitte question. I have always gotten a raise each year, the only question I ask is how much of a raise do I get. But I’m hearing from former Deloitte folks, it is naive to expect annual raises each year however small/big they are? And how does this play in Deloitte consulting vs advisory? Do one tend to withhold annual raises in base salary over the other, or is this just a deloitte culture thing? Looking at exit opportunities all over. So lmk! I’d Rather get a small raise than none at all.

Underrated consulting skill imo: strategic procrastination. Half the time my client makes a request or wants a change made, three days later they decide against it. Throwing significant time at anything before determining if it is really needed has been one of the most frustrating wastes of my time and clients’ because it replaces the more important things I could’ve been doing instead.
