I recently accepted an offer and started working for a small company. Everyone is great and friendly and I've been here about a week. Even though I already accepted the offer and started to work, I had several other companies I applied for in progress. Rather than turning them down, I decided to continue with final interviews. Accenture just gave me an offer recently and I'm really torn between two choices. Either stay where I am or go with Accenture. Details below: Small company: C: 145k with great benefits such as 10% 401k match, and 100% premium heath benefits paid. Also PTO accurred 20 hours a month. Small company that really values its employees, and gives opportunity to grow. Position: PM TC: ~159k Accenture: 152k base, 10k sign bonus, 6k annual bonus (depending on performance) 6% 401k match. Health benefits good, and PTO is 10 hours a month. Position: Cloud Support Engineer TC: ~179k first year, 169k thereafter. Big company, makes you feel like a number and hardly room to grow quickly, but is brand name company in case you want to move elsewhere after. What would you do? Burn bridges or stay? Thanks for reading and appreciate any feedback. #offer #career #tech
Accenture offer in BayArea?
No, it's in the DC metro area. That offer would be too low for Bay area lol
YOE?
I used to work at Accenture. You will never get as much as a $6k annual bonus. The new CEO is nuts and the company is going downhill. Stay where you are.
This is exactly the type of feedback I'm looking for. Thanks for your comment. Any other people from Accenture who've had different experience?
BTW, do you think working for Accenture was a factor that helped you get in IBM, compared to working for an unknown company?
Accenture is not a great company to work for. They don't have cutting edge technology work and the work culture is cannibalistic. If you choose to go with them, stay there for a brief period of time and then leave for something better.
Stay where you're at! Not worth it. Money isn't everything.
Try giving interviews with other companies and leverage Accenture offer if you can.
Do you mind sharing the name of the small company ?
Money is not eveything, be humbled and blessed you have a job. Over 7 millions had filed for unemployment.
Thanks for your comment. I am very grateful, especially during this time. I was stuck in limbo for a while with many companies on a hiring freeze. I do agree with you that money isn't everything, hence why I'm posting on Blind to get several opinions
You are welcome, plus if you ever need extra money lot of part time remote opportunities are popping up!
