Will firms ever match a signing bonus? Or is this basically never done? Like if you’re making 140k at your firm and say you have an offer for 160k plus 25 signing, would your current firm ever match the new base and give you the signing right there to retain you, or is this basically never done?

Hi fishes.. Advice required since I am confused.

Profile - MBA from one of the IIMs, Deloitte S&O, total and post mba experience = 2

I am getting an industry offer for 34 LPA which I feel is huge considering my experience and role also seems good. My only confusion is that I feel if I stay in Deloitte for 1-2 more years, I might be able to switch to MBB or Kearney. I always wanted to try the client site lifestyle and might get better exit opportunities after that. What should I do? Thank you.
