Pwc Technology Advisory Internship vs Big Tech
I'm a Computer Science major, spent the last two summers interning as a software dev, and this summer decided I wanted to try something new. I got an offer PwC for a Tech Advisory Internship and the pay is way below what I expected (I mean I knew consulting pays less than software dev, but I didn't realize it would be this much less). Unfortunately most of the tech firms I'm looking at told me they don't start recruiting until December or later (I have a return offer from the place I interned at last summer but I don't want to do the same thing again), and my offer from PwC expires at the end of November. I also find software dev insanely boring. Anyway my options are:
1) Take the PwC offer
2) Gamble on a Big Tech offer
3) Take the PwC offer but reneg if something better (Big Tech or MBB) comes along (I have mixed feelings about how ethical this is)
Thoughts on my options? I've also gotten mixed reviews about how good/prestigious PwC Tech Advisory is, so if anyone has insight into that that would be great. And this is for a smaller office on the West Coast.
If you find software dev insanely boring, you should probably do something else. Are the other positions you are looking at in big tech also software dev?
You could ask for an extension, explain your situation. They may be understanding, maybe not.
As for prestige, depends who you ask. Average person will think PwC in general is very prestigious. B4 tech consulting does sit significantly below MBB, or even the B4 S&O groups.
Reneging is best if avoided, but if you have to do it, do it.
