Make 115k TC at 3YOE in risk/PMO, dislike consulting and don’t see much future there anymore currently.
SWE seems to fit the lifestyle / work style that I aim for more. Would it be silly to do a bootcamp and potentially take a short-term reduction on TC or should I look for PMO / business adjacent roles in industry and keep increasing comp that way? All advice appreciated, thank you

The real question is will you enjoy SWE? Liking the work style and lifestyle is not enough if you don’t like the work itself

I work as a consultant for a small HR consulting service in Ontario, Canada. Our owner/president wants us to hit a revenue target of $1m this year. The closest we’ve come is $800k in 2019. We also noticed that in 2019 we hit our highest revenue but did the fewest overall client work for that year. In 2020 and 2021 we did more client work but fell short of $800k revenue. Our avg rev per client is $2500, with a lot of single projects @ $500. Does it makes sense to increase our prices?
