Hello WSO,
I wanted to post a discussion about two offers I received in the past week:
PwC - TAS Valuations
-Valuation and modeling of companies in deal environments
-Providing value measurement and advisory
-80+ hours a week during busy season, travel is possible
-59k, no signing bonus, small percentage annual bonus
Deloitte Consulting - Federal Business Technology Analyst
-Conducting research and analysis for federal clients
-Due diligence on technology strategies and implementations
-40 to 60+ hours a week, travel to government client sites
-72.5k, 10k signing bonus, small percentage annual bonus
The only caveat is that I signed with PwC, as my deadline was before I would find out from Deloitte. The difference in pay is so significant though, that it has me gotten me thinking about the implications. My long term goals are to either lateral into an MM IB analyst program and/or move on to business school in my later 20s with management consulting to become my priority. I know that federal is looked down upon, but I was not sure on the overall reputation of Deloitte Consulting and the effects of staying with a relevant player in the consulting space. Some background about me:
-Non-Target Undergraduate w/ internships in corporate restructuring and assurance
-Finance and Economics
I would appreciate any advice and thanks for the time!
