Big4 Showdown
Hi WSO,
Give me some advice regarding the following 4 offers I have from each of the B4 for a city in Southern USA:
- Deloitte - Strategy Analyst, 85k Base + 10k Signing
- KPMG - Advisory, 78k Base + 5k Signing
- PwC Strategy& Generalist Associate, 100k Base + 5k Signing
- EY-Parthenon Deal Tech Associate, 90k Base + 10k Signing
Leaning towards the last two options for $$$ reasons. Need insight regarding WLB, exit opps, bonus structure, culture, pretty much everything.
One specific question is Deal Tech at EY-P's work scope versus S& Generalist work scope, would Deal Tech be only deals (more work) for same pay? I have an interest in tech but also want experience in non-tech projects.
Thanks in advance.
EYP and S& are definitely the two best options here. Although Deal Tech is a solid group, I would go with S& here since working as a generalist is significantly more valuable early on than focusing on one practice. If you were recruited into EYP’s generalist class that would be more comparable.
Agree with above commenter. I would take probably Strategy& first and EY-P second.
Quick question, I noticed that your base for EY-P is higher than a friend's. Are you in a HCOL to get that bump?
Typo, it's 90 base
Agree with the other posters on here with respect to S& and EY-P being the best options, and would also suggest S&
I have friends who worked in effectively the same role as the deals tech team at a different T2. Those can be some of the least interesting whilst simultaneously most demanding projects in consulting
Also, "interest in tech" =/= deals tech. You're probably more interested in strategy projects for tech clients
S& > EYP = Deloitte >>> KPMG
Agree
Do theses divisions in big 4 help you transition to BB/PE/MBB easier vs. valuation or audit? Thank you
Yes
