Most likely TS gotten an offer from DBS and Accenture.

And accenture one probably not in real 'strategy'. You are better off choosing DBS.

For argument's sake let's just say DBS and ADL.

Perhaps you can share the name of the consulting firm (or similar peers)?
Tier 3 refers to the consulting arms of the Big 4, no? Maybe the recent acquisitions of Monitor, Parthenon, Strategy& helped boost their prestige but historically Big 4 consulting were considered sucky sweatshops

Do they pay the same? Consulting seems riskier and with a worse WLB.

Nope, the consulting one is about 25% higher. So yes I see that as compensating the risk and poorer WLB.

I’m very curious, what value add does a consulting firm provide ? Do the proposal provided give u additional 30% (example) more revenue ?
How they should go to market , etc ? Isn’t these what marketing & sales people should do ?
