Probably neither given the state of consulting right now but if you had to pick it definitely isn’t Accenture. Please check our stock price.

I knew deloitte better 9 years ago pre covid than i do today. We used to joke they were the MBB rejects but on tech we'd swap employees back and forth.

Def not accenture

Long term? Accenture. You will burn out quick at Deloitte the hours are much longer

Not true - depends on various factors

Deloitte, best in class

Deloitte
