Hi,
I have a full time MBA (class of 2013) from a non-target school, 4 yrs of consulting experience at Cognizant Business Consulting which is basically Technology Consulting for Cognizant Technology Solutions. I have been promoted to Consulting Manager last year. Now I have a offer from EY but they will only take me as high-end Sr Consultant as I don't have big4 experience. There is no pay cut, infact a 4% hike and a high prospect of promotion to Manager next yr which will come with a bigger hike.
Now I am pretty ok with the compensation. Also I think the work will be better than what I get involved in at Cognizant. But I am concerned if this is a 'demotion' of sorts and how it will look on my resume. Thoughts??
Personally I would not worry about it at all. 1) You will get to do work that you will enjoy more 2) You are moving to a better brand. In a grand scheme of things (i.e. longer career development and personal / life satisfaction) a year doesn't matter at all but you can gain so much. And on top of that you are not even taking a pay cut - to me it is a no brainer.
These are just title differences that we are comparing here - taking away this ego booster I thing the decision is pretty simple.
I agree and if you believe in yourself, you will be back to manager next year.
I agree with the above. Sounds like a pretty good deal.
