S& - you’ll hate your life but you’ll make a ton more.

I had the same exact situation. Took S&. I really liked the ZS ppl but the long term $ gap was just too much to pass. You’ll have the option to do non LS projects here if you’re interested.

ZS is you want WLB and still make a decent pay, S& if you wanna 🤑

I agree. I'd also factor in if you want to stay in LS long-term or consider other industries. S& is obviously a much better choice if you're still considering moving industries

How much more $ is S& vs ZS
