Deloitte Over KPMG

It’s pretty difficult to switch to commercial for most folks. Just something to consider if you go to GPS

like

My concern is being pigeonholed into federal work and not being able to switch to commercial after learning Deloitte. I’m currently an analyst at AFS and going to KPMG would mean making a lateral move and no pay increase while going to Deloitte would mean a level up + a pay increase. I’ve had success getting interviews at FAANG + big tech even with my federal consulting background but I’m afraid that going to GPS will make it more difficult to do that again in the future or land other commercial consulting roles. I’m also very unhappy at AFS so I would like to leave ASAP. I’ve been applying and interviewing for months and these are the only offers I’ve gotten.

C1, for most, working on commercial projects isn’t impossible, but the actual transfer is next to impossible. It happens, but it is 5x easier to leave for commercial consulting than to transfer.

If you want technical work, a decent variety of clients and teams, I’d go to KPMG commercial

like

I switched from Deloitte GPS to KPMG commercial

Work on cooler projects and clients, get paid dramatically more, and work less.

Not everyone’s situation, but I have no regrets making the move and have seen MANY GPS people here from Deloitte

like

Came from Deloitte too- this statement is all too true. Interesting work and able to set boundaries.

D better name but seems like way worse of any place in terms of wlb, so I’d steer clear

That do sound nice D3…every M/SM I see just works 7-7. Not sure I get paid enough for those hours :)

Deloitte. Even if you’re more passionate about commercial work you can switch to that side of D via networking. Also, commercial exit opps are still open to GPS people

I just left D GPS TO EY commercial

Commercial, higher pay long run and you can always choose to go into Fed if you want. Much harder to go the other way. Also more exit opportunities

What’s your take on a job listing that states “From $xx,xxx”

They’re seeking someone with 5-8 years experience. I have the latter (8 almost 9)

How would I approach this when asked without pricing myself out of the position? Especially if they’re not willing to be upfront (assuming here) how much they’d want to offer me in particular.
