I am a graduating student who just got offered 65k for a solution analyst role at Deloitte USDC (Data Engineering Focus). From reading previous posts it seems to be a lot of negative thoughts surrounding the USDC, but straight out of college is this a good opportunity?
I'm looking to gain as much experience as possible out of college in an IT role and wondering what exit opportunities may be in place a year or two down the road if there is little/slow progression.
Any Advice?

I have had the tough manager and it was a toll on my mental health because he had toxic traits. I am self motivated. I can work with a chill manager. That is my preference
I experienced this as well, and the senior became the manager I mentioned in my prior comment. I had an open and honest conversation with the Senior - now manager - I mentioned that I was open to learn their leadership style and shared my concerns in a kind and direct way; however, after the feedback and feedback from other leaders and team members, their leadership style did not change. It is best for the company to have this manager since this manager is an amazing producer. Unfortunately, I do not agree on giving each single minute of my life to a project, and I left. Sometimes is best to protect your peace.
I have four degrees, I can learn on my own. But working for a boss that nothing is ever good enough would drive me insane.
I've had both and in most instances I've actually experienced the chill manager is willing to hand the reins to me. Manager is out on PTO? Tells the partner I'll be handling things and running meetings in his or her absence. I think part of that was also the trust I built with my managers by respecting their position while also letting them know I know my stuff and the proof is in the pudding
I'd say work with both assuming the tough manager doesn't also have toxic behavior and the easy/chill manager is willing to give you growth opportunities.
What do u consider toxic behavior
Depends on your definition of “tough”, but I’d prefer the latter. I’ve had the latter and the toughness was only in regards to their expectations on communication, consistency and your own willingness to be thorough and self-sufficient…that being said they were all fair expectations. I had the most growth opportunities given to me under that manager and I learned the most I ever have. It also molds you in to thinking the same way as well, so anything after that is usually easier to deal with.
How about door #3 - a low stress manager from whom you learn a lot.

I’ve experienced a manager that was super chill and I agree, you can get into too much of a comfort zone and there is no growth. I think that if you earn the respect of the tougher manager then they can be more forgiving and that makes the relationship better. You could also make the plan to try and learn as much as you can and take that to your next role.
Easily Chill Manager. I don’t find ive really suffered from a learning perspective. The late night phone calls and weekend messages and musings, and fire drills etc from a tough but “good” manager were dreadful.
Calling you at night, musing and conducting fire drills isn't a tough manager that's just an ahole without boundaries who somehow got promoted.
Being a tough manager is one that has high standards for your work quality, ability to learn, and doesn't let you slide on laziness, cutting corners or being late.
Always the nice one
