Senior Consultant

What are some useful goals for a Senior Consultant looking to get ready for a Manager role? My Coach doesn’t have much interest in my development and I’m in the process of looking for a new one, but meanwhile I’m working on building my own list of skills I need to work to become a good manager. What does a brilliant Engagement Manager look like? Any thoughts are much appreciated!

Have any fishes from this bowl ever moved from Senior Consultant to an analyst position at an investment bank/asset manager? Keen to know whether it ended up feeling like a step down/starting over?

Only thing is I don’t want to be in tax for the rest of my career.. any good exit paths that anyone can recommend?

Current role: Entry level cyber consultant, ~1 YOE post grad, 75k, leadership has floated the idea of early promotion to senior in May (for whatever that is worth) Opportunity: boutique CRM firm at a senior consultant level, 100k What’re the bowl’s thoughts? Better to stay at a larger firm with more potential long term growth, or switch now for the immediate pay bump and more start up vibes meaning potential rapid leadership position?

Are Transformation roles in industry worth it? I have about 5 yrs of experience (1.5 YOE in consulting, Senior Consultant level) and I’m thinking of leaving consulting for a permanent role in industry doing internal transformation.

Could anyone please help provide any thoughts on the pros and cons of doing internal transformation projects in industry? How do different industries compare? Thanks for sharing!

What’s a good exit for supply chain? I have an undergrad and masters in supply chain management from top ranked supply chain programs. 3 YEO in industry, 1 YEO SC software consulting, 1 YEO boutique consulting. Currently making 100k TC in a senior consultant role. Any exit suggestions?

Getting haunted by the fact I didn’t get promo for 2 years and just got it this year. The peer then is my (thin line) day to day reporting manager who still leans on me. While I respect her position, I’m feeling like I don’t have the independence of “running the show”. The client has been ours for over few years so I can’t even make “relationships” work. No team reports to me directly so feeling like I’m still a SC but with a title. I hate bringing low energy but what can I change about this?

What’s the difference between exiting at C vs M (or SC)? I’m interviewing for a Product Manager role that would net at least a 20% salary increase. At the same time, I’m having second thoughts about leaving consulting given the current trend of layoffs.

Finding it very difficult identifying an exit opportunity into industry(preferably tech) from a generalist cyber security path. Have done resilience, cyber policy, privacy, IAM, data protection, etc and am a high performer that manages projects as the acting manager, although a SC. However, I can’t identify a fast ball to cater it to roles in the industry. Anyone have tips that you can share on how to choose roles to apply for? Any inputs will be much appreciated!

Thoughts on making a move as a Exp SC or waiting until likely Manager promo at YE 2021? Non b4 advisory role with bulk of exp in Internal Audit and SOX.

SM at F500 strategy role vs SC at Big4, similar TC let's say around 150-160k. Which do you you choose?

You guys are great, but consulting might not be for me so I’m considering yeeting out. My question: as a staff-level consultant, how much would it help me to wait until I am promoted to senior consultant before leaving? Im going to start a business but if it fails I want to have a decent resume to hop into another role. I’m fresh out of college and I have literally no idea what I’m doing. Thanks all. Insults not appreciated, I am a delicate flower.

Anyone heard of Biovid? A recruiter reached out to me about a SC position there but have never heard of the place. Looks super small from my initial research. Thanks FB fam!

What is typical pay for 2YOE? Starting position as senior consultant in financial services (FSO). How much can I get if I jump to a similar b4?

SC at ~ 180K TC. I recently got an offer from my current client for a VP role (they had pitched other roles and I declined due to the comp difference not being high enough). They came back a few months later with a 450K TC VP offer that really surprised me... While this seems like an obvious move, the client is really shitty and fairly small (~1B in rev). Am I crazy for thinking of turning this down? My GF and I combined make about 400K so it’s incrementally not that much to us.

So I’m a second year consultant. Like most, I was disappointed with compensation this year and am pretty bearish on my future earning potential here. I’m currently interviewing with a big tech company (not FAANG but close) for a position with substantially higher pay as a business analyst. I really wanted to stay til SC/M but the money is too good to pass up. I guess my question is: are there any major downsides to exiting to industry “too early?” Has anyone done it and regretted it?

Anyone have thoughts about taking a post production workday SC role at Alight? I’m in interviews and excited but don’t know much about them. Tired of working extra and not getting anything for it.

What’s the deal with getting promoted during GC process? I am currently a C but up for SC next year (sept) if it goes through. If I file my GC as a C this year but get promoted to SC next year, do I need to start over? Conversely, if I file GC with future position (SC) but not make my promo, will I get screwed?

Was extended an offer for SC position at a smaller consulting firm. Originally asked for 130K base, offer given was closer to ~110K base with ~10K in performance bonus. When countering with desired 125K base, due to other opportunities, base was raised to 115K. Would be happier with 120K base, but is it worth pushing for?

Anyone know of life science or health care consultancies hiring at the consultant (potentially senior consultant)/manager level?

🐠 fam, looking for some advice. Currently an SC making 100k. I have been acting as Manager on all of my engagements for the past year; identifying new sale oppy's, leading pursuits, getting follow-on work signed, etc. Have very consistent feedback from my clients about the quality of my work, some even bluntly asking "why aren't you a Manager yet"... all consultants are underpaid, so I know I'll just go play my little 🎻 ... but really, I'm not being compensated for the role I'm filling [cont]
